VERY IMPORTANT! Turn off for Mygero Refuge from Livadia, NOT between Zoniana and Krana. There’s a “road” Google Maps insists connects about 3k from the refuge, but it is not a road. It is a pile of rocks, and there’s also a fence. Do not be fooled. VERY IMPORTANT!
Went mid-June and all I needed was a light windbreaker near the top. Trail can be tough to follow at times. Start with the stone path, then follow the dustier trail among the less dusty surroundings. Begin early morning if you can—no shade until the small chapel at the top. Look west from the peak to see both the north and south sides of Crete at the same time, with a great view of the Amari Valley. 2:15 up, 1:30 down for me, :30 at the top.
