A Scenic Hike Through Agia Eirini Gorge

Nestled in the White Mountains of Crete, Agia Eirini Gorge is an alternative to the famous Samaria Gorge, offering a less crowded but equally breathtaking hiking experience. The 7.5 km trail winds through lush forests, towering rock formations, and serene landscapes, making it an ideal choice for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The trail is easier and shadier than Samaria, making it a perfect choice during the warmer months.

As you make your way through the gorge, you’ll be surrounded by imposing cliffs, crystal-clear streams, and diverse flora, creating a picturesque and refreshing journey. The shaded paths and gentle slopes allow for a more relaxed and enjoyable hike, making it accessible to both experienced hikers and beginners.

After completing your hike, we take you to Sougia, a charming seaside village on the southern coast of Crete. Here, you can relax by the Libyan Sea, swim in its crystal-clear waters, or enjoy a delicious Cretan meal at a traditional taverna. With its laid-back atmosphere and stunning coastal scenery, Sougia offers the perfect way to unwind after an adventurous hike.
