From Heraklion when you arrive at Malia you can see the crag at your right. Then pay attention to a road on your right (just after "Skyline rent a car") there is a notice "Matheo Hotel". Turn right there and follow the road as it goes with direction to the rocks on the right. After you pass a small hotel there is a small parking on the right, park there.

From that point go 50m back and you will see a small hand made door in front of you (blue sign "Bike & Hiking Trail"). The 2009 guidebook says "Open it and follow the red signs. You will need around 10 minutes to get to the rocks." In 2022 now there is another fence right behind this door. Once the 2nd barrier is crossed. Follow it on your right following large cairns that we built. Once you arrive at the “slabs”, leave the barrier and climb to the cairn. From there follow the path dotted with blue dots and cairns (2023).

Another not recommended option is following the road further west into an olive grove and climb a fence there and go through bushes directly up to the crag. If you find a good approach please add it here.
