10Samaria Gorge
The Samaria Gorge is one of the most famous natural attractions in Crete. Located in the White Mountains (Lefka Ori), this impressive canyon stretches over 10 miles, making it one of the longest in Europe. A trek through Samaria Gorge takes you on a journey through rugged terrain, with towering cliffs on both sides, leading to the sparkling waters of the Libyan Sea. The hike offers breathtaking views of nature, rare flora and fauna, and the chance to spot the Cretan wild goat, the kri-kri. It’s a challenging yet rewarding experience for nature enthusiasts.
