E4 is an international trail under the supervision of the European Mountain Walking Association (E.W.V.) and has been designed and marked by the Hellenic Mountaineering-Climbing Federation.

It starts from the south of Spain and the Pyrenees, continues through France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, which it crosses from north to south, from Promahon to Gytheio and then continues to Crete (Kastelli Kissamos), which he crosses from west to east, ending up in Kato Zakros to continue his “journey” to Cyprus from there.

The total length of the E4 is over 10,000 km, giving the hiker or climber the opportunity to experience all the variety of the landscape, but also the richness of Greek nature.
