Description
Immerse yourself in the spectacular Cretan terrain on a memorable one-day experience in a natural paradise in East Crete. Your destination angel – an expert hiker - will guide you on an approximately three-hour trek though Richtis Gorge. Lush landscape and the reviving scent of oleander and sage will be your companions as you head for the loveliest of waterfalls. There, you will have plenty of time to relax and cool off in an idyllic lake.
Our next stop is the traditional village of Mochlos situated opposite the islet of St Nicholas with its photogenic chapel of the same name. Shall we tell you why this islet is such an important archaeological site?
In Mochlos, you’ll find classic Cretan charms, unspoiled by time, and the ideal spot to enjoy delicious seafood at a scenic waterfront taverna.
