Imbros Gorge – a Suitable Walk for All Ages

Imbros Gorge

Imbros gorge lies South of Rethimnon and is a 7km easy and mostly shady path suitable for all ages! A perfect walk for families with children that takes about 3hours to walk through with amazing narrow passages and natural stone arches and a great history as this is the path that saved thousands of troops after the end of the Battle of Crete in late May 1941. The bus will be waiting for you to Komitades village, exit of the gorge, to take you to Sfakia village where you can enjoy lunch and a swim in the crystal clear Libyan Sea. Late afternoon transfer back to your hotel.
