Private Hiking Tour in Imbros Gorge (Chania)
Imbros Gorge The path into the gorge starts just below the village of Imbros. There are several cafés and tavernas in Imbros and the routes to the entrance of the gorge are clearly marked.
From there the path descends gently into the gorge heading south. It is never steep and not particularly difficult (running shoes are good enough for this walk) but as everywhere in Crete the path is stony so you need to pay attention to where you put your feet.
Because the gorge is fairly narrow (under 2 meters wide at one point!) and has plenty of trees you will have shade most of the time. After around 120 minutes’ walk from the gorge entrance booth (2,5 hours if you walk really slowly) you will pass an impressive stone arch on your right.
After this the gorge widens a little and after around 15 more minutes you get to the road and the village of Komitades where we will be waiting for you to continue the tour or to return you back where we picked you up from!
