A kalderimi is a cobblestone-paved road built for hoofed traffic. It is a significant cultural heritage of the Ottoman (Turkish) ages and still a great opportunity for hiking. A kalderimi may cross the mountains or connect villages with pastures. Some villages in South Crete were accessible only by kalderimi until 1960 (or even 1980). [Wikipedia de](http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalderimi), [Wikipedia en](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalderimi "Wikipedia en") A kalderimi is a bridle path, but **not** suited for horses. It is paved, but **not** suited for vehicles. It is mainly used by hikers, but still also by mules and donkeys. OSM might become a great ressource to collect data on the remains of the kalderimi netowrk ... **if we had a dedicated tag** to mark it somehow different from a common footpath. Not at least this would reflect the significance of the cultural heritage.
