Samaria gorge is one of the longest in Europe, it is 16 km long, begins at 1230 meters above sea level at Xiloskalo near the village of Omalos, and ends at sea level near the pretty coastal village of Agia Roumeli. The walk can take anywhere between 4 and 6 hours to complete, depending on your approach and fitness levels.At the beginning of the walk is a steep descent down a rocky footpath with a wooden railing. This is called Xiloskalo which literally means wooden stairs, in the old days there was only a wooden ladder, before the steps were carved.
