Itinerary description
An easy walk from Sita tourist info to the Hellenistic town of Trytipos, followed by a Minoan Villa, then the Minoan Palace of Petras. Walk is only 3-4 hours but I spread it over the day with picnics and swimming. Start on the road or beach out of town, then road to Trytipos. Next is local dirt tracks thru olive groves to the Minoan Villa and on to Petras. Finally return to Sita via the beach for a swim. There is nothing on the walk, so take the food and water you need.
