Lakkos tou Mygerou - Vouloumenou (Kreta / Crete)

Dostop do izhodišča:
Izhodišče na grškem otoku Kreta se nahaja nad vasjo Livadia (tudi Livadya; gr. Λιβάδια; poštna št. 74051) pri koči Lakkos tou Mygerou (gr. Λάκκος του Μυγερού) na 1550 m nadmorske višine.

Odcep iz vasi Livadia je označen in se nahaja na manjšem trgu s spomenikom (gl. sliko). Od vasi do koče je 13 km asfaltirane ceste z mestoma strmimi ovinki, ki pa je v dobrem stanju in dovolj široka za srečevanje avtomobilov. Na cesti sledimo oznakam za Psiloritis v grščini "Ψηλορείτης".

The starting point on the Greek island of Crete is above the village of Livadia (also Livadya; gr. Λιβάδια; postal code 74051) at the Lakkos tou Mygerou hut (gr. Λάκκος του Μυγερού) at an altitude of 1550 m.

The turnoff from the village of Livadia is marked and is located in a small square with a monument (see picture). From the village to the hut, there are 13 km of paved road with occasional steep bends. The road is in good condition and wide enough for vehicles to pass each other.

On the road, follow the signs for Psiloritis in Greek "Ψηλορείτης".

Opis poti:
Nekaj korakov od parkirišča se desno proti pobočju odcepi pot, tlakovana s ploščatimi kamni iz okolice. Na teh kamnih se nabira pesek, ki pri povratku lahko povzroči zdrs.

Približno dve tretjini poti do sedla je pot tlakovana, nad višino 2000 metrov pa se preobrazi v klasično planinsko pot. Na 2250 metrih, po dveh urah hoje, se ta pot združi s tisto, ki prihaja iz izhodišča Nida (ogromna kotanjasta ravnica na vzhodu).

Od tu naprej ne sledimo več glavni poti, ki vodi proti zahodu na najvišji vrh Psiloritis, temveč se obrnemo proti vzhodu. Mestoma je pot težje vidna, pri čemer je zlasti potrebno paziti, da se ne zaide po poti, ki teče navzdol. Zato se je najbolje držati nekoliko levo po stezeh planotastega sveta proti vrhu, ki ga dosežemo po 20 do 30 minutah hoje od sedla.

A few steps past the parking area along the road, a path branches off to the right toward the slope. It is paved with flat stones from the surrounding area. Sand accumulates on these stones, which can make footing slippery, especially on the return trip.

For roughly two-thirds of the way to the saddle, the path remains paved. Above approximately 2000 meters, it transitions into a more typical alpine trail. At 2250 meters, after about two hours of hiking, the path merges with the one coming from the Nida starting point (a vast bowl-shaped plain to the east).

From here, we no longer follow the main trail heading west toward the highest peak, Psiloritis, but instead turn east. In places, the trail is faint and less visible, but avoid descending. Instead, head slightly left across the plateau-like terrain toward the summit, which is reached after 20 to 30 minutes of walking from the saddle.
