Kamares is a village at the southern flank of Psiloritis mountain. Kamares village is famous due to its cave and to the paths leading to Psiloritis peak after a 7 hour walk. At Kamares the trail starts which leads first to the cave. The cave is high above the village (altitude 1523m) and the ascend takes about 4hrs.
This is a very large cave located under the summit of Mavri (1,950m). It is reached after a steep and difficult ascent taking 4 hours on a path that is not well marked. A great part of the route is through a wooded area with three or four springs of water and rewarding views of the Messara plains and Libyan Sea.
If the weather is good then you may see the island of Gavdos far out to sea. The distance from Heraklion city is 56 km and from Zaros village 13km to east.

After Vistagi continue to the south (toward Fourfouras) and prepare yourself for one of the most beautiful routes on asphalt in all of Crete, which takes you to the town of Agia Varvara through Lochria - Kamares - Zaros on the road that connects Iraklio and Gortina.
Although it cannot exactly be described as a “mountain route,” it follows the west and south side of Mount Psiloritis and sometimes takes you to a pretty high altitude from where you can enjoy a great view wherever you look. If the night finds you travelling in this area, you have very few chances of finding “decent” accommodations. Apart from some shabby Rooms to Let in Platanos, Kamares and a few other villages, there is no place to rent.
