Agia Irini Gorge Tour – Mini Samaria Gorge Walk
If you are looking for a slightly different hiking experience in the foothills of the White Mountains, away from the crowds, shorter than the Samaria Gorge but just as beautiful, then our excursion is perfect for you! Agia Irini Gorge, another protected area in the western foothills of the White Mountains, which is part of the E4 hiking trail network, will enchant you with its natural beauty and reward you with its picturesque scenery and many memories. A big advantage is the fact that it is far away from the crowds and shorter than the famous Samaria Gorge. It is breathtaking and ideal for nature lovers and wildlife watchers. The descent takes 3-4 hours, is 7.5 kilometers long and overcomes a height difference of about 500 meters during a quiet walk in nature.
The excursion is configured based on your request upon consultation. We can also tailor this tour for larger groups. Don’t hesitate to contact us for a customized tour and quote.
