Perhaps a thousend year old Kalderimi or cobblestone paved roads for mulis were the main traffic system in Crete in former times. Nowadays Kalderimi like this one from Agios Ioannis in the White Mountaiins to Agios Pavlos at the coast of the Libyan Sea are popular routes for experienced hikers. Kalderimi heißen die oft gepflasterten Maultierwege, die in Kreta wohl bereits vor tausend Jahren das wichtigste Verkehrsnetz bildeten. Heute zerfallen viele Kalderimi und werden allenfalls wie dieser von Agios Ioannis in den Weißen Bergen nach Agios Pavlos an Kretas Südküste von erfahrenen Wanderern als beliebte Routen genutzt.
