Imbros Gorge is second in popularity after Samria. This valley has long been the only way
through high and rugged mountains in the area of Hora Sfakion. The walk is not complicated,
and this path is even easier. The Gorge is about 8 km long and takes 2.5 – 3 hours. The
entrance is at altitude of about 700 meters above sea level and descending, you can enjoy
the mountain scenery. This scenery will change like a kaleidoscope: dry river bed of rare low
thorny bushes, hills with cypresses and oaks, mountain, narrow passages between high,
deep cliffs which in some places they reach only 1.5 meters.
The next point of our route: Fortress Frangokastello. It was built in the fourteeth century by
the Venetians. This fortress is linked with heroic pages in the history of the island, as well as
the phenomenon of “Drosoulites”.
After dinner you can swim in the crystal clear waters of the Libyan Sea.
Additional expenses: entrance to the gorge: 2.5€
Entrance to Fortress Frangokastello: 2€
The lunch is not included in the tour price
