Samaria Gorge

The 16-kilometer long Samariá Gorge is the greener one in this list. The canyon is located on the southwest Crete. Because of the amazing green surface, the total area is extremely popular for walking. Every year more than a quarter-million people do so in this place.

It will take almost four to seven hours to pass through forests of ancient cypresses and pines. Then you will be guided to cut deep between vertical cliffs through the mountains to emerge at Agia Roumeli on the Libyan sea. Here at this point of your amazing journey, you can choose either to sail the nearby village of Hora Sfakion.
