There is more to Crete that the treasures of Knossos and the Samaria gorge. Behind the tourist “front” and away from the crowds and “development” of the north coast, lies a true paradise, waiting to be explored. It features:
-Spectacular mountain rides through remote, breathtaking places.
-Secluded plateaus that are magically transformed into oceans of wild flowers every spring
-Forgotten hamlets, where Time seems to have stopped.
-Country taverns with that special something that only home-cooked meals can give
-Minoan settlements, ancient towns, Byzantine chapels and Venetian fortresses, all inviting you on a solitary trip through History.
After two years of extensive study and field research, in cooperation with the Hellenic Army Geographical Service, the Forest Authorities of Crete and dozens of locals who revealed the precious secrets of their land, Road Editions presents Unexplored Crete, a travel guide specially written for the demanding motorcycle traveler and not the casual sightseer.
