    • Access to the gorge with a buggy is relatively hard
    • Do not forget to take hats and suncream for your children
    • Supply yourselves with water from the taverna before you start walking

    • Maybe one of the easiest gorges for walking with your kids. Labelled with scaffoldings, bridges, paths and ledges with ropes.

    • The ambience withing the church of St. Anthony under the rock shelter is quite devout. Among the most picturesque churches to calm down and pray.

    • You are surrounded by nature…the only thing that you hear are birds and running water. Enchanting.

    • A very good alternative to the gorge of Samaria for both kids and less fit adults.
