White Mountains
In this demanding hike we will try to reach 3 summits above 2000 meters in the region of Chania, in the heart of the White Mountains (Lefka Ori). You need to be very fit to complete this hike.
A minimum of 8 hours walking is required on a rocky terrain with high temperatures during the summer (20-35oC) and lots of steep ascents. During the winter, previous experience in snow is required and more specific how to use an ice axe and crampons.
The central and southern part of the Lefka Ori lying at an altitude of 1,800 m (5,906 ft) and above resembles a “moon landscape”. This is technically called a high desert. It is unique in the northern hemisphere!
Level: Advanced
Walking time: 8-9 hours
