Itinerary
Samaria Gorge National Park
Take the time for a hike in the Samaria Gorge: this guided 10-mile (16-km) walk takes you to a place of stunning natural beauty. You’ll be picked up in Chania by a comfortable bus and then prepare to be wowed by the gorge, as high limestone cliffs and quaint villages create the background for a great hike.
The challenge is a walking tour from one end of Samaria gorge to the other (18 kms). Â 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. Â 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.

Great place to visit mountains. Because we don't have any mountains in our country. Information from guide is absolutely correct.

It was really a challenge, but we don’t regret. It was absolutely worth it and the views were gorgeous! The guide Claudia was very energetic and informative.

One of the best things I did while in Crete. It is a beautiful gorge and technically challenging. Next time I would try it from the bottom up.
Amazing hiking trip
Published on Aug, 2023
Amazing trip! The hiking and views are great. The hiking is actually quite demanding for the begunners. Even though the hiking is 16 km but our watches showed around 30 km at the end. Take care that the money You pay is basically only for the bus and the tour guide whom You will not see around as they will be round about 30 minutes behind you. The whole hiking trip is basically private and You are free to wonder...
Hike the Samaria!
Published on Jun, 2023
Amazing hike! We don’t typically hike, but this was very doable. Make sure you have good shoes and take a walking stick! It took us 4.5 hours. Make sure to eat at Rossinis in the village at the end of the hike. Best meal!
