[Rich Daley] Pics: Crete: Samariá Gorge

description:

The Samariá Gorge is arguably the longest gorge in Europe.

This walk is 16km long - starting 1.3km above sea level at the Omalós Plateau through the deserted and extremely isolated village of Samariá and then from there on to the village of Ágia Rouméli which has no way in or out except by boat. The whole walk took about six and a half hours and resulted in about 3 days of achy calf muscles!

The pictures really don't show the utter grandeur of this gorge. I've tried to get a few wideangle ones with people on so you can see quite how massive the walls are.
