seems quite adventurous, but is stable (at least on September 26th 2022 it was like that 😅)

After about 1.5 km you will find this cistern with a rest area and there is even water flowing from the tap.

Zigzag Trail in the Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

You shouldn't "insist" on the individual highlights of the paths - depending on rock falls, landslides, etc., the route changes sometimes ;-)

Old plane tree in the Irini Gorge

Highlight • Natural Monument

Make sure you are in good shape and do not underestimate the number of kilometers. In the Netherlands this would be a very tough walk. There are water points. Spring water and delicious but after 5 km there is nothing left. If in doubt about your condition do not do it. Bring a survival blanket.

May 3, 2026,Agia Irini Schlucht

Since the Samaria Gorge is still closed, our alternative today was the Agia Irini Gorge.
We walked up from and back down to the Oasis tavern.
There was water in the gorge from about halfway down, further down it is completely dry.
The hike is really varied!
However, you should be sure-footed. It goes over stones and you also have …

Back in Paleochora – drive to the Agia Irini gorge, which we might have walked at the end of the lower hikes – gorges are easy, offer shade, variety and surprises

Well... the altitude is not quite correct.😉 It was probably too warm for my Garmin watch.🙃

I have to admit, I don't really believe the meters in altitude. Otherwise my legs would feel different. 😂

Today we go to the Irini Gorge again, but first we take the lunch bus up to Agia Irine. The light at this time of day gives the rocks a reddish glow. We take our time so that we have the gorge to ourselves. We only reach the Oasis shortly before dark, which is already closed at this time.

Today, with fantastic weather again, the hike through the Irini Gorge was on the agenda. We started at the hiking car park at the lower entrance to the gorge and, as with the Imbros gorge, we planned to hike the gorge in both directions.
Unfortunately the journey from Georgioupoli was 100 kilometers long, so we left there early.
Shortly before …

We are on Crete and completing our E 4 long-distance hiking trail. Still have some gaps to fill and hiked up the Agia Irini gorge today. In previous years we walked down the gorge several times, but without a record on Komoot. Our goal is the complete recording of the E 4 long-distance hiking trail on Crete at Komoot, which …
