The challenge is a walking tour from one end of Samaria gorge to the other (18 kms). This is a rough, rocky, uneven track through the gorge. On route there are many stopping points where you can find toilets and drinking water. At some points the width of the gorge is only 3 m wide and you may have to climb over boulders. You will reach the end of the gorge at Agia Roumeli where we take a break and you can get a bite to eat (food not included)!
This hike is not suitable for the un-fit or for clients with heart problems, high blood pressure, or pregnant.
We return by boat to Chora Sfakion where we are collected by the coach.
