Entrance to Imbros Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

A good entry point to the Imbros Gorge. Parking is also easy, at least during the off-season ;-) It's also worth a visit even if you just want to get a little taste of the gorge.

Before the construction of the road to Chora Sfakion, the Imbros Gorge was the most important route from the north coast of Crete (Chania) to the province of Sfakia on the south coast of the island. Remains of the paved mule track can still be found today.

The Imbros Gorge is a highlight on Crete. Magnificent rock formations can be admired. The narrow spots in the canyon are fantastic. The hike through the gorge is also suitable for children. I can only recommend it 🇬🇷👍🌞👌😎
