village as you&#8217;ll find in Crete, and one of our favourites.\u00a0 It&#8217;s also where the little-known Kalogiros Gorge comes down from Aligi, and the even lesser-visited and more difficult Halasses Gorge, or Porofarago, leaves for Makronas.\u00a0 Watch this space!\u00a0 When our guidebook &#8216;More Walks from Paleohora&#8217; (see below) appeared in 2003, the way south out of Sassalos was by a rough track, fording two streams, then through a chestnut forest to reach the handful of houses at Milones, 4km away.\u00a0 Now it&#8217;s a rather unnecessarily wide highway, an improved surface for cycling, but less interesting for walkers.<br \/>\nPass through Milones, and then fork left for the 4km back to Floria.\u00a0 The concrete soon gives out, and the climbing begins, with the track rising to over 650m.\u00a0 Always stay on the main track, rough though it is.\u00a0 A short distance above the village keep right, and similarly a little further up after a couple of sharp bends.\u00a0 As the gradient eases, a wide track branches off right (south), but keep ahead, heading east.\u00a0 At a further junction (with a deep fissure below right), keep left on a steady descent through olive groves to meet the outward route, and turn right back into Floria, where one of the two cafenions might well tempt you inside.<br \/>\nThe bus to Paleohora, faster now than in years gone by, passes through Floria around an hour after leaving Chania.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_287\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

particularly recommended to break the journey after a stressful day shopping in Chania.\u00a0 Walk out of Floria along the main road towards Paleohora for 700m (10 mins) and take the minor road (left) signed to &#8216;Pano Floria&#8217;.\u00a0 Before reaching the village, branch off left down a track heading towards a small church\/cemetery, with the hamlet of Demouliana on the hillside above.\u00a0 Wind round to the church, then up to join the road at a sharp &#8216;hairpin&#8217; bend below Demouliana, and turn left for the short walk back into Floria.\u00a0 Both Pano Floria and Demouliana, and paths beyond the villages, are worth exploring when time allows.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_288\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
