Updates Discover Vamos... on Foot

It’s in the nature of walking guidebooks to be out of date almost as soon as they appear! Especially in Crete the landscape is changing all the time; footpaths are made into roads or are overgrown, houses are built, new fences are erected, etc. If you find any changes in the walks or think that the descriptions are not correct or clear, please let us know and send your advice to: info@discoveronfoot.com The changes will be added in future editions of the book. All our Books and updates for the walks you can find on our website www.discoveronfoot.com. 

Here you find updates for our booklet Discover Vamos... on Foot. The updates are based upon experiences from other hikers but also by new information from us while checking the routes. The udates below are for the edition from 2019!!
