Kournas Village Circular Hike

Sunday, September 27th, 2026

Three Cretan villages, located next to one another, compete in beauty, but another feature of the route steals the show: the Koumares Forest.

The trail starts from the very old settlement of Kournas, which has preserved its traditional character. We pass through an impressive forest of holm oaks and return to Kournas. The route is circular.
