Samaria Gorge information:

Samaria gorge is in southwest Crete in the regional unit of Chania. It was created by a small river running through the White Mountains. The gorge is 16 km long, starting at an altitude of 1,250 m at the northern entrance, and ending at the shores of Southern Crete and the Libyan Sea. The walk through Samaria National Park is 13 km long, but you need to walk 3km extra to reach Agia Roumeli from the park exit or just get on the available mini bus and skip this 3km walking, by just paying 2 euros!
