Sarakina Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The gorge is approximately 1.5 km long and between three and ten meters wide, only reaching greater widths in a few places. The rock walls reach a height of about 150 m. The Kriopotamos River flows through the gorge, its water level varying throughout the year due to wet winters and dry summers.

The narrow passage at the beginning is a wonderful photo opportunity for me. In the early hours, the walls shimmer golden through the sun ...

A real highlight! (at least when it's dry, with water in the canyon I'd rather stay away) An entertaining climb with lots of interesting insights and views, there's something new waiting around every corner. Narrow passages, ropes, ladders and "crawling passages" - extremely varied tour and always the opportunity to choose a route (sometimes easier, sometimes more difficult) - really, really great!
