Activities

If you do not relate your holidays only with sunbathing and swimming, but you also wish to explore Kato Zakros through natural routes appropriate for cycling, or through signed hiking paths where you will enjoy the untouchable beauty of our land, you have your chance here in Kato Zakros. The only thing you need is your good mood, the right footgear and of course your camera!

Cycling

At Yiannis Retreat Studios we provide you with mountain bikes, which you can use for free in order to enjoy your ride through the natural routes that exist. Riding through the olive trees, the gardens of the locals, through the Old road from Kato Zakros to “Pano” Zakros, looking at the magnificent view or following the road to the beach, you can combine exercise with pleasure.

Hiking

For our visitors that are lovers of hiking, there are many interesting and passable paths, signed with red signs. Except from walking through the European path E4 that goes through the Dead’s Gorge, there are also very beautiful routes such as the path to Pelekita, Xerokambos and many others. We can provide you with a special map of our area with all the routes, and we can also inform you about anything else you need.
