Imbros Gorge And Libyan Sea Full-day Tour From Heraklion
Let's escape into the wild nature and discover the second most popular gorge on the island, the famous Imbros Gorge. Located in the region of Sfakia, Imbros Gorge is known for its stunning rock formations and unique landscape. It is easier to walk than the well-known Samaria Gorge but offers the same magical experience. Along the way, you will pass through narrow stone passages, steep cliffs, and shady trees that protect you from the hot sun. The gorge is rich in wild plants and herbs that grow only in Crete. The path gently goes downhill and takes about two hours to complete, making it perfect for families with children or those who want a more relaxing hike. During your walk, you will also come across historical spots, as Imbros Gorge was once an important escape route for the locals during World War II. At the end of the hike, you will reach the peaceful village of Komitades. Here, you can relax and enjoy a delicious Cretan meal or a refreshing drink before returning.
