Discover the Timeless Beauty of Imbros Gorge, Crete!

The Gorge of Imbros, nestled in Crete's rugged landscape, is the second most popular gorge for hikers after Samaria. Stretching across 8 kilometers with a gentle descent of 600 meters, Imbros offers a walk that's both breathtaking and family-friendly. Perfect for adventurers of all ages, the hike takes approximately 2.5 hours, with shaded paths that guide you through narrow passages, some under 2 meters wide!

🌿 This gorge, open year-round, is particularly enchanting in the spring when wildflowers bloom, and the island awakens with vibrant colors. But Imbros is not just about natural beauty—it's a living piece of history. For many Australians, New Zealanders, and Brits, it holds a deeper significance, as Allied soldiers walked this very path in 1941, escaping to Egypt during WWII.

🗺️ Start your journey in the village of Imbros, and let this historic trail immerse you in Crete’s rich heritage and awe-inspiring scenery.
