The path winds through lush vegetation, with vibrant wildflowers and aromatic herbs lining the way. Keep an eye out for the diverse wildlife that inhabits the gorge, including birds, butterflies, and the occasional kri-kri, the native Cretan wild goat.

After some well-deserved rest, you’ll be transported back to your starting point, filled with memories of an incredible day spent exploring one of Crete’s natural treasures.
