Itinerary description
On the way to Lasithi plateau last village of Aghios Nikolaos region is Mesa Potamoi.Just 500m after Mesa potamoi is dirt road going right and up to 'Zaroma' and church of Aghios Panteleimonas. Park there and walk the dirt road to church,1 hour .Above church start signed path to summit of Selena,another 1.30min.Until selena summit is easy and almost for everyone.. Spectacular view to lasithi plateau heraklion city hersonisos malia e.t.c. You can walk back as a very nice circle trek.
Descent from peak to the rest mountain is dificult.Steep descent,no paths at all,terrain is full of big pocks and that is something to oblige you to walk by the rocky sides. Also is many peaks all over the mountain so is dificult to orientate. Now, the exit from the mountain named poros Livana is also steep. 200m descent like a goat. Gps and a lot of water (3it) necessary(if is summer).
Summit is 1558m.
