Crete has an uncountable amount of gorges. Some famous-like Samaria- some unknown by tourist crowds, but not less impressive! Al the gorges have their own charms and difficulty levels. We would like to take you to the aria of Kissamos to the gorge of Polyrinnia.

FLORA and FAUNA
In the gorge you will meet a lot of trees such as, olive, plane, chestnut and a lot of species. We are mostly lucky to see the Griffons flying above our heads.

The minibus will bring you through a beautiful landscape and small villages to the starting point of the walk. Travelling time about 45 minutes. We start at an altitude of 500m from sea level, decent approximately 250m.the first few hundred meter are a little steep. Down the walking path becomes easy. Totally walking distance about 5 km. This route is just enough to don’t “suffer” from muscle pain the day after. Half way there is a resting point in the shadow of the trees, next to the river. Almost at the end of the gorge we will pass from an old bridge builded at the Venetian occupation.
