GPX File for CanyoningOpenCanyon.orgKaritsas: Canyon StartApproach: After the first houses on the left and a satellite dish on an iron pipe (2010), a path that is initially not recognizable as such leads downhill over some concrete steps and then in a northerly direction across a meadow towards a slope edge. Here, at the latest, we take up the track again, walk along the edge of the slope in an easterly direction, cross into the following slope keeping slightly downward and follow the track down to the streambed.This access explored by the author from the streambed upward saves about 20 min. access and 30 min. rappel in the streambed downward (according to the access description in the book by George Andreou); with this access one is at the first rappel in the shortest time. The total length of the tour in meters is shortened by about half. If you like hiking next to or in the streambed, or if you don't trust yourself to find the way described here, take the access described in George Andreou's book, which has its starting point at the church.
Tour: Sequence of beautiful rappel (9 in total).]]>Karitsas: Canyon EndReturn: After the last rappel through the sparse forest to the Karpenisiotis Potamos (river), cross it at a suitable point and continue to the road by the stalls.]]>Karitsas: Parking at ExitAccess: From Karpenisi in southwestern direction on the road to Prousos. However, we do not have to go that far. After about 16 km we see a house on the right side of the road and on the left side of the road stalls and a clearing. Here we park the first car. About 2 km further on we turn left to Karitsa. We cross the river (check its water level, because after the canyon we have to cross it again and without a bridge) and drive uphill. After about 2 km we come to a road junction. Here we do not go right up to the church (as described in George Andreou's book), but left. At the first houses we park the second vehicle.

Approach: From the chapel we continue to follow the descending slope and 300 m further we cross the stream (ford). Beyond, the track goes up through olive groves. After a right and a left serpentine, the track describes a right and then a left bend. Here (800 m from the chapel) take the left slope, which leads first westward, then slowly uphill in a southerly direction. After the three prominent bends (right, right and left), at the next junction (1800 m from Kapelle) do not go straight on, but left and then immediately right again at the following junction. This track now moves in a northwesterly direction and we come across a T-junction a little later. Here right and always - hardly noticeably - uphill towards the north, then later towards the east. We then cross the streambed of the Xeropharago/Kalami II, which is only recognizable as such because there is a corresponding signpost (anno 2008) on the right (3600 m from the chapel). We continue to follow the track. It makes a left turn and we see the stream (possibly with waterfall). After 700 m there is a worse track on the right. Here you can park the second car if necessary (4x4 or much ground clearance needed). About 200 m on this slope, then look for the best access to the creek. You can also cross to the right about 150 m before reaching the latter junction on the slope in front of the prominent rock and after the edge then also pathless, but more directly down to the creek. If you want it steeper and more direct, go back from the chapel about 150m on the access track and then take the junction at a sharp angle to the left. It takes us northwards to the stream just above the exit of the Xeropharago. Here we descend steeply and pathlessly for a few meters into the streambed, downstream for about 25m and then out to the right. From there we follow the cairns uphill in a northerly direction. After reaching a small plateau, continue approximately horizontally until you reach the track, which then immediately leads again over the inconspicuous beginning of the Xeropharago. Continue as described above.
Tour: 6 to 7 rappels. Between the rappel - all feasible outside the beam - longer runs.]]>Panagia: Canyon End2024-04-17: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Kalami 1 Le parking du transfo est niquel.Sentier de montée bien cairné sur le lapiaz.L'accès du vieux topo emmène trop haut...

Return: Before the last waterfall, either exit through the narrow gap on the left and descend on the slope edge (on the right below flat area with transformer station) to the slope. Or another rappel down under the large capstone and then left out onto the slope. Follow it for about 600 m southwards to the approach slope. Here turn right down to the chapel.

Access: From Ierapetra westward along the sea (rarely seen) to Myrtos (14 km). Passing the village, the road (No. 97) turns inland towards Ano Viannos and goes uphill. After 11 km (from Myrtos) we turn left (southward) and go down to Kalami (1 km further there is a second possibility to go down). We pass the village and continue towards the sea (Sidonia/Psari Forada) parallel to the stream flowing below on the right. At the edge of the slope (Canyon Kalami I on the right below), the road first curves to the left, drops more steeply and then moves to the right along the slope. In a prominent left turn, we take the dirt road that turns right. It descends steadily and we reach (keeping left) a place in front of the chapel of Moni Keralimaniostisos. Here we park the car.

Cross the village and continue in a northeasterly direction into the Mavrovouni mountains. After about 24 km from Kalamaki - the road has sunk to the sea in the meantime - we cross the Rokapotamos. On the large area after the bridge on the left we park the lower car. With the second car we go back 2.8 km on the approach road, then we turn right at a sharp angle onto a track that is also good for non-4x4 cars.

The road to Ierapetra (southwards) turns off to the right. We continue straight (east) towards Sitia and after 5 km we reach Kavousi. We drive through the village and turn right at the last houses and before the bridge (sign 'Archeological Site'). We drive up the concrete road, ignoring the turnoff to the 'Archeological Site' (2.2 km from the turnoff from the E75) and pass one of the oldest olive trees in Crete. Then we go downhill a bit and cross a streambed (4.3 km): on the right (south) ends the Mesonas, on the left begins the Havgas. Here we leave one car. With the other one we continue uphill. Before reaching the village of Melisses, we take the dirt road to the right after a gate (6.4 km). We cross a streambed and follow the dirt road uphill until we reach a saddle after a few switchbacks (10.3 km; 740 m a.s.l.). From here, the trail goes more or less horizontally to the south (on the right, below, a house, behind it the entrance to the gorge). At the head of the valley we cross 'our' stream and park the car about 100 m after it, where a stone staircase (above a water pipe) leads down to the right. For the access described by Bromirakis you have to go further (up to km 12,5).\nFor the ascent we recommend a four-wheel drive vehicle, but in any case one with more ground clearance than the usual passenger cars. On the orographic left side of the stream, however, there is also a path leading up to the entry (where it crosses the stream).\nIf you want to continue the Havgas, park the first vehicle in Kavousi (more detailed at the Havgas description).

Approach: Take the dirt road on the left that climbs very steeply for about1.2km to a picnic area. Arrive near a grove and continue left, leaving the grove on the right. Descend to Vatos, about 800 m from the picnic area, and cross it to cross to the left bank. Continue uphill for 200 m until you reach a large tree on a plain. Continue straight, crossing the plain, and take a path with hairpin bends. Continue until you come across a first drainage basin at an altitude of 610 m. Go past it, fording the stream, and continue at altitude until you reach a second drainage basin. Pass this too and continue along a faint path for about 100 m, then go left and climb following the line of centuries-old trees until you reach a plain. Continue climbing, going diagonally towards the canyon, until you reach a steep grassy gully, which you climb in a zigzag fashion until you reach a saddle with some old fences. Go right and climb a little further until you come into view of Kousanda. Approach the stream, maintaining altitude until you reach a descending canal with centuries-old trees. Descend carefully to the riverbed (elevation 760).
Tour: After an initial downclimb, which can be bypassed, there is a second one (20 m) to tackle on the right bank. A few descents follow until you reach a 20m long inclined plane, which you descend by rope. Continue along the right bank where there are rappel anchors, some natural, and passages for downclimbing, until you reach a landslide to overcome on the right bank. A small rappel on the left bank precedes a further landslide to be overcome on the right bank. This is followed by a 25 m high descent, which precedes a beautiful narrow section. We continue with a long series of rappels with an increase in flow due first tributary on the right and a second on the left. You arrive at the highest waterfall on the route (35 m) which, due to the play that the water forms, can be considered as a "bubbly massage". This is followed by a downclimb and a rappel that leads into the Vatos. You have to follow this stream for about 2 km, making three more rappels, until just over 500 m from the sea, on the right bank, a steep hiking trail begins. ]]>Kousianda: Parking at Entry2025-06-16: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Kousiantas Canyon Grosse approche, fait après Kara et enchaîné avec Vatos.

Access: If you want to save a hot walk back, arrange a boat with Nicholas ‭+30 698 4508105‬ (English, no WhatsApp known) to check that he is running the boat. Arrange an approximate pickup time. Park a car at Pachia Ammos beach. If taking a boat back, park at the west of the beach; if walking back park at the east end. In the second car, go back for just over 2 km until you find the dirt road on the right that leads to "KPHMNIQTIEEA ". Go up the dirt road for about 2 km until you reach a small clearing on the right, 100m before the church and shortly after a steep dirt road on the left. Park. If a 4WD vehicle is available, it is possible to shorten the approach by 20 minutes by taking the dirt road to the picnic area where you can park.
Return: Best way to return is on the boat with Nicholas. If you want to walk: Take the hiking trail, about 3 km long and signed with red marks, which leads to the beach of PachiaAmmos through an often rugged path, with exposed sections and with a beautiful view of the sea. The first stretch, steeply uphill, leads to the most exposed section. A descent, very steep at times, followed by a climb leads to the pass from which you descend towards the beach and the parked vehicle.]]>Kousianda: Parking at Exit2025-06-16: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Kousiantas Canyon Grosse approche, fait après Kara et enchaîné avec Vatos.

Here a few meters to the right and then following the sign 'Tornos Canyon 100 m' left (northeast) down to the stream. Entry at the bridge.
Tour: Where the Chalikorema joins the Prousos flowing in from the left, up the Prousos. We come to a gorge constriction with the name 'Mikro Pantavrehi' (pantavrehi = everything rains). Here you could immediately go right up to the slope and then left over the bridge back to the village of Tornos, but it is worthwhile to continue in the Prousos a few meters further up the stream to the next interesting narrow point.]]>Chaliko Rema: Canyon EndComment: nach dem Aufstieg im Prousos Bach

Tour: You can 'enrich' the tour a little bit, if you 'take' the right side canyon (called 'Canyon Right' on the topographic view in Bromirakis' book) at the beginning. One reaches this narrowly cut and at least in spring water-bearing side canyon after having downclimbed the Zonari a bit; one then takes the path on the right directly after the tributary, which brings us in about 10 min. up to the beginning of the gulch and to our descent into this side stream (max. rappel height here about 15 m).]]>Zonari: Canyon EndReturn: After the confluence of the Zonari canyon with the Sarazina canyon (with continuous water flow), we now follow the river downhill to the exit of the canyon.

We drive south through the village, the tarred road turns into a dirt road and we continue on it. About 2,5 km after Metaxochori we pass a gate and 1,5 km after it we reach first the streambed of Zonari and a few meters after that the place where we can park the second vehicle (conversion about 17 km).\n\n\n\ With the second vehicle we go back to the road and continue on it again in northern direction.

Comment: Parking at the beach after the boat trip

Access: Access requires a car shuffle, possibly a mountain taxi, and arranging the boat return. First organise the boat: contact Nicholas ‭+30 698 4508105‬ (English, no WhatsApp known) to check that he is running the boat. Arrange an approximate pickup time. If using a mountain taxi, contact Sakis (call or WhatsApp +30 694 7099107‬, some English) to arrange. It is recommended to use a mountain taxi up the mountain as the road is bad and the sharp rocks cause punctures. Park a car at Pachia Amos beach on the end of the road on the south side of the island. Take the mountain taxi or another car to the broadcast tower, up the mountain on the north side of the island.

Return: After the last rappel through the slot in the rock face (at least that's how the observer below sees it) continue a bit in the streambed and then out to the left to the vehicle.]]>Kalithea, Φαράγγι Καλλιθέας: Canyon Start2026-01-02: Caution.

Return: There are 3 possibilities: Unless you have a second vehicle, go back up the said mule trail to Papingo.

Access: From the northernmost Greek ferry port (Adriatic Sea) Igoumenitsa, take the N-06 (= E-90) in the direction of Ioannina (95 km). 5 km before the city turn left via Eleousa onto the northbound N-20 (= E-90) and drive about 30 km in the direction of Konitsa. 4.7 km after Kalpaki turn right towards Mesovouni, Aristi. Once there, we take the road to the village of Vikos, which towers high above the canyon of the same name. There we park one car. With the second one we go back to Aristi and there we turn right down to the bridge over the Voidomatis and up to Papingo. At the beginning of the village we turn right up a ridge and go down beyond (30 m). Here park the car at the foot of a wall. If you have only 1 car, leave it in Papingo and take a path back down from Vikos, crossing Voidomatis and then going up the orographic left slope of Rogovo to Papingo (cf. way back).

Comment: Beginn des Aufstiegs zu Fuß auf Pfad

Approach: From here, a terrain depression descends in a southeasterly direction. We follow the path. Maybe there is also the signpost 'To the springs of Voidomatis river'. We reach the wooden footbridge over the stream (entry).]]>Servia, Φαράγγι Σερβίων: Canyon StartApproach: From the cemetery (back) to the town of Servia and then keeping south up the hill with the Byzantine Castle. Instead of then taking a left turn up to the castle, we keep to the right and come to a restaurant at the exit of the road. Past the restaurant, a path leads us over the canyon towards the south. At a bench you can climb over the grate and after a few meters you are at the stream.
Tour: 8 rappel. Water always murky - quicksand. Still nice descent]]>Servia, Φαράγγι Σερβίων: Canyon EndReturn: Where the canyon widens into a broad valley, you can see the cemetery at the top right. Along its southwestern boundary wall to the car.]]>Servia, Φαράγγι Σερβίων: Parking Entry and ExitAccess: From Thessaloniki on the A 1/E 75/E 90 in the direction of Athina (Athens). After 33 km and after the tollbooth at Malgara keep right on the A 2/E 90 (the highway to Athina goes left). After 117 km (from Thessaloniki) you pass Veroia and reach the exit to Kozani, Larisa. Leave the highway here and drive around Kozani to the east, always on the E 65 towards Larisa. It goes down to the Aliakmonas reservoir, on a bridge to the other shore and then slightly uphill into the town of Servia (145 km from Thessaloniki).\n\nIn Servia we head for the municipal cemetery. It is located southwest a little outside the town in is recognizable by its cypress trees. Park your car here.

Approach: From the chapel we continue to follow the descending slope and 300 m further we cross the stream (ford). Beyond, the track goes up through olive groves. After a right and a left serpentine, the track describes a right and then a left bend. Here (800 m from the chapel) take the left slope, which leads first westward, then slowly uphill in a southerly direction. After the three distinctive bends (right, right and left), at the next junction (1800 m from Kapelle) do not go straight on, but left and then immediately right again at the following junction. This track now moves in a northwesterly direction and a little later we come across a T-junction. Here right and always - hardly noticeably - uphill towards the north, then later towards the east. We then cross the streambed of the Xerofarago, which is only recognizable as such because there is a corresponding signpost (anno 2008) on the right (3600 m from the chapel). (Here we leave the car (4x4 is necessary)). We follow the signposts and follow the notching streambed first along the shore, later we march in the streambed itself to the beginning of the canyon.\n\nIn connection with the not so easy wayfinding you should have a look at the Google Earth Sat image with geolocalization at descente-canyon.com (zoom in!)\n\nThere is another access (west) next to the canyon pathless and steep up (stone men) and then as soon as possible right down into the streambed (who loves it a little harder). In addition, one could (who wants it even more pleasant) also work with car conversion and then march from the north or drive with 4x4 (see sketch at Bromirakis). Then access time about 5 min.
Tour: Narrow rocky gorge, beautifully cut, generally without water flow.]]>Xerofarago: Canyon End2025-10-06: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Kalami 2 Superbe canyon dans un calcaire compact et bien sculpté.Une petite vasque s'évite par une oppo facile, une autre vasque s'évite par u...

Return: Go down to the regularly flowing stream that comes out of the Panagia/Kalami I canyon; go up in it for about 20 m and then go up on the right (on the orographic left bank) to a flat area (iron parts lying around, transformer station?). From there take the dirt road to the right, which after about 700 m reaches our access track. Turn right and go down to the chapel.

Access: From Ierapetra westward along the sea (rarely seen) to Myrtos (14 km). Passing the village, the road (No. 97) turns inland towards Ano Viannos and goes uphill. After 11 km (from Myrtos) we turn left (southward) and go down to Kalami (1 km further there is a second possibility to go down). We pass the village and continue towards the sea (Sidonia/Psari Forada) parallel to the stream flowing below on the right. At the edge of the slope (Canyon Kalami I on the right below), the road first curves to the left, drops more steeply and then moves to the right along the slope.

Comment: (descente_1)

Approach: From the car we follow the slope that starts northwest of the parking area and goes up continuously towards NNO. We ignore a track that soon branches off to the left, as well as the track that branches off to the right after about 600 m (from the car) and one that branches off to the left about 100 m further on. We pass through two gates. After a total of almost 1 km we come to the place where the track runs northeast away from the stream (Sikia). Here, where another path joins the Sikia, we descend into the streambed.
Tour: A total of 12 rappel. After about a third of the route, which until then is mainly walked or rappelled (only 2 small rappel), the Rodakino B Canyon opens from the right. From here on, the canyon becomes much more respectable.]]>Rodakino A (Sikia): Parking Entry and Exit2024-04-25: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Sikia Cette fiche concerne rodakino A.Fait a la suite du B.La dernière vasque s'évite grâce au figuier!

Access: From Réthymnon we drive south towards Armeni, Spili, Agia Galini. We drive through Armeni. Approximately 10 km further on we turn right in the direction of Agios Vasinos Sellia. It goes in western direction. After about 10 km (from the turnoff) the road bends south and we pass (high above the streambed) the Kotsifoú canyon. We ignore a road turning left and come to Sellia. Not descending towards Plakia, but continuing straight westward we come after an estimated 18 km to Kato Rodakino. We pass through the village. At its western exit we see a small unpaved parking area on the left. Park the car here.

Comment: unterer Einstieg

Approach: From the chapel we can choose between an upper and a lower access. The lower access is not so easy to find, but it shortens the descent by almost 1 hour. On the other hand, a 20m rappel is lost and the possibility to contemplate small artesian springs in the streambed. For the upper access, continue along the slope behind the chapel until you reach a few meters from the streambed. Here you take the relatively most pleasant descent. To get to the lower entry, walk west along the edge of the canyon, passing a fenced-in area with a house at the top. About 50m before reaching a cut in the terrain, keep to the right and descend at about a right angle without a path (2022) towards the streambed. Please note the geolocalization at the internet site 'descente-canyon.com' as well as photo 1 on this page.
Tour: A bit more open at the beginning, then narrow gorge in grown rock, high side walls, about 30 rappel, some with handrails to set up. Some possible jumps and slides.]]>Ha Canyon: Canyon End2026-01-30: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Ha canyon Observations:my 80m rope was more than enoughCanyon fed upstream.

Comment: 16 km Shuttle, Ende der Straße etwas schlecht, aber geht.

Access: From Ierapetra we take the road towards Agios Nikolaos. After about 5 km we pass Kato Horio on the righthand side and after 10 km (from Ierapetra) we take a fork half-right; the other road leaving at a right angle would lead to Monastiraki. On our road we go about 1200 m (NE) and then cross the gravel bed of the stream that flows through Ha Canyon. Then we orientate to the right and after passing an access road to a factory we reach a chapel, which is located at the exit of the Ha-Canyon (orographic right bank). Here we park one vehicle and return with the other one to Kato Horio, turn left at the beginning of the village, then keep straight south for about 700 m until we find the road to Thripti (east at the beginning). From here we drive uphill for a good 7.5 km until shortly after a prominent left turn a dirt road turns off to the left. We take this road (2022 well drivable with a normal car, but not with 5 heavy persons ;) ); it leads horizontally along the slope of the Ha and after about 400 m (from the beginning of the track) we reach the chapel Agia Annna, where we park the other vehicle (see also http://www.canyoning-club.com/images/canones/topos/creta/ha/crokis_ha.jpg).

Approach: We follow the dirt road that makes a bend to the right. On the left, a dirt road branches off immediately. We take the slope and then the right branch and soon cross the Kavousi. Here we leave the lower car, or walk from here if we don't have 4x4. With a 4x4 or on foot we follow this track that zig-zags up the ridge between Portella and Kavousi for about 1.1km. After 3 serpentines to the right and to the left (from the stream), the track finally goes northwards towards a ridge. Beyond it goes down to the entry.

Comment: Parkplatz ohne 4x4

Access: From Ierapetra westward along the sea (rarely seen) to Myrtos (14 km). Passing the village, the road (No. 97) turns inland towards Ano Viannos and goes uphill. After 24 km we reach Ano Viannos and continue through the village on the main road. About 2 km after the end of the village - we have passed Kato Viannos on the left - we turn left towards Hondros, Keratokambos. After 3 km we pass through Hondros, then it is another 9 km down to Keratokambos at the sea. Here we drive along the sea for about 400 m towards Arvi, then turn left at the end of the village and drive north for another hundred meters or so. The road now turns to the east. At the exit of the bend there is a big chapel on the right (here we park the lower vehicle for the Portella). We now continue east for about 300 meters until the tarred road meets a dirt road (2008). Here we can park the car.
Return: Where the access track crosses the stream, exit left and follow the track southwards to the car.]]>Kavousi II: Parking at Entry2026-01-29: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Kaviousou Observations:Dry canyon.The mud smells a little, but it's bearable.Impressive depth and steepness.Comments on the approach and retur...

Access: From Thessaloniki on the A 1/E 75/E 90 in the direction of Athina (Athens). After 33 km and after the tollbooth at Malgara keep right on the A 2/E 90 (the highway to Athina goes left). After 117 km (from Thessaloniki) you pass Veroia and reach the exit to Kozani, Larisa. Leave the highway here and drive around Kozani to the east, always on the E 65 towards Larisa. It goes down to the Aliakmonas reservoir, on a bridge to the other bank and then slightly uphill to the small town of Servia (145 km from Thessaloniki and up to here identical with approach to Servia Canyon). The road now passes the northwestern edge of the town and continues in a southwesterly direction to Larisa. 5.5 km after Servia the road makes a left turn and then moves in a southeasterly direction. In this left turn a small road goes right downhill towards Prosilion.50 m further the road branches. We turn right to the small church in the cypress grove; in front of it, on the right, there is a long concrete well. Here we park the car.
Return: After the canyon widens, turn right along the edge of the meadow back up to the small church where the car is parked.]]>Lygia: Canyon StartApproach: From the car along the rocky ledge below the chapel in a westerly direction until the terrain opens to the south. A few meters we march on a slope downhill (SE) towards the Ligia, but then stop pathless directly down south and into the already notching canyon.]]>Lygia: Canyon EndReturn: After the longer inclined rope through reeds and trash out to the path.]]>Mavri Spilia: Canyon StartApproach: From here you can first take the footpath up the stream, later the via ferrata, which brings us to the entry. Alternative access: From the bridge (on foot or with a second car) about 700 m back on the approach path, but then left at the junction. Now about 150m on the slightly ascending road, then in a right-hand bend our access path goes off to the left uphill. Here we park the vehicle for the access if necessary. A path leads us in direction SSW up to the chapel Agios Apostolos. From here we follow the water conduit along the slope southward until an access to the streambed opens up to us on the left down into the streambed.
Tour: First passages of rappeling, then some rappeling and as a highlight the grotto.]]>Mavri Spilia: Canyon EndReturn: After the exit of the gorge and about 50 m before the 2nd iron footbridge up to the footpath and down it to the bridge.]]>Mavri Spilia: Parking Entry and ExitComment: bei Zustieg über Via Ferrata

Access: From Karpenisi in southwestern direction to Prousos (31 km). From here continue in a southerly direction.

Tour: West facing canyon, quite open, the light stone gives it a friendly ambience. Also well suited for beginners. The name Mega Rema (= Great Stream) is rather exaggerated in view of the mostly meager water flow.]]>Mega Rema, Μέγα Ρέμα: Canyon EndReturn: After the canyon opens up and the slope decreases decisively, you march a few hundred meters in the scree-strewn streambed until you can exit to the left onto an open (meadow) area. Continuing along the stream, you finally come to the wide dirt road by the Pamisos River. Here, turn right in a northerly direction, along a wire fence on the right, and a few meters after its exit you will find a path on the right (at a picnic area), which first crosses a wooden footbridge, then comfortably climbs uphill and reaches the highest area almost exactly at the car.]]>Mega Rema, Μέγα Ρέμα: Parking Entry and ExitAccess: From Larissa good 55 km in the west direction or from Meteora monasteries (Kalambaka) about 22 km in the SE direction you reach the town of Trikala. From here you continue in southwestern direction to Mouzaki (about 18 km). There are alternative routes. In Mouzaki you drive southwards over the river Pamissos on the road that leads to Karditsa. Shortly after the bridge, turn right onto a small tarred road along the southwestern edge of a settlement. The destination is the monastery of Agios Georgios. Still in the settlement, the road begins to climb after a left turn. Continuously uphill, passing a well chapel on the left side of the slope along the road, after 2.3 km (from the bridge) you reach the plateau with the cemetery (on the right) and the monastery (on the left). Park the car here. A shuttle is also possible. In this case, park a car at the exit.

Approach: In the mentioned bend a footpath begins, which leads in the direction of SSW right bank (orographic.) at the brook Orlias upwards. We ignore forks to the right (to the stream) within the next hour. After about 1 hour we reach a saddle where the path turns to the left (in eastern direction). Here we find a small tin sign on a thin trunk that was once red, and a plastic sign with a large red marker nailed to the trunk on the right. Between these signs the path branches off, which after another 15 minutes brings us to the stream, but the last meters pathless.

Access: We leave the A1 freeway, which runs north from Lamia on the east coast of northern Greece (towards Katerini, Thessaloniki) at Dion, which is signposted as a freeway exit because of its excavations. We drive through Dion and leave it at the southwestern edge, where the access road to Orlias is signposted. We drive the tarred road in a southwesterly direction for about 3 km; now the road starts to go up in serpentines. Then the chapel of Hagios Konstantinos appears on the righthand side and the tarred road turns into a dust road at the next left turn. Here we park our car.

Comment: Park at Therma

Access: Park at Therma. Follow either the direct path, or walk up the rough road then on the path. It may be possible to save some walking by driving up the rough road from Therma with a suitable car, in which case a car shuffle is required (or someone walks up to fetch the car while the others drink at the restaurant). It is also possible to park at 40.486058, 25.618228 and follow the road then a path to the top of inferior at 40.481917, 25.60910, then a further path to the top of intermedio at 40.476932, 25.605152 (path marked with red dots). However, the path is somewhat unpleasant and undulating, and for the effort the walk into superior is far more pleasant.
Return: Find the path marked with large painted red dots. Use your map app to return to the car. If you parked at 40.486058, 25.618228, follow the paths and old canal to cross the river at a very small dam at 40.489480 25.614173, then follow a vague path (not marked on map apps June 2025) to regain the road to walk to the car.]]>Gria Vathra: Parking lot Alternative access2025-09-29: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Gria Vathra We followed Bina's description, which worked very well.

Access: From Ierapetra westward along the sea (rarely seen) to Myrtos (14 km). Passing the village, the road (No. 97) turns inland towards Ano Viannos and goes uphill. After 7 km (from Mirtos there is a road to Loutrake on the left. However, we continue for about 1400 m towards Ano Viannos and come to the place where the road crosses the streambed of Lapathos. A few meters in front of it on the left of the road place for parking the lower vehicle.From the lower vehicle we continue a little over 6 km in the direction of Ano Viannos, then we take the road leaving on the right and go up to Kato Simi.The tarred road (2008!) continues to the north; we follow it and pass first some small waterfalls on the right and then at about 1000 m a.s.l. to the ruins of a Greek sanctuary (Ermis Afrodite), which was already founded by the Minoans, securely fenced in militarily. Interesting is the spring that comes out watery right next to the fence (in the NE of the fenced area). With or without stopping, the road continues uphill - the tarred surface is now missing. A good kilometer after the excavation site we turn right at a fork, then see a remarkable waterfall above on the left (dry in March 2008), and a little further on we can find a signposted viewpoint on the right. We pass a gate and have reached the highest point at the edge of a plateau (about 4 km after the ruins). At a T-junction we keep to the right, see a house on the right and cross another dirt road about 300 m further on. Now we go downhill in southeastern direction until we reach a fence with a locked gate. Here we park the second vehicle.
Return: After the last rappel (80 m/8 m/28 m) about half an hour still rappel hiking, then just before the bridge left out to the road.]]>Lapathos: Waypoint2024-04-20: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Lapathos La 80m relève l'intérêt du parcours...

Approach: From the car, we follow the track that starts northwest of the parking area and climbs continuously in a NNE direction. We ignore a track that soon branches off to the left, as well as the track that branches off to the right after about 600 m (from the car) and one that branches off to the left about 100 m further on. We pass through two gates. After a total of almost 1 km, we reach the point where the track runs northeast away from the stream (Sikia). Here, where another stream runs alongside the Sikia path, we descend into the streambed of the Sikia and climb up the slope to the northwest without a path on the other side. We cross the rock bar on the left at about half height (35°12'24.38 "N / 24°19'22.16 "E). After passing the rock ledge, cross the slope in a westerly direction, keeping slightly uphill, until you reach the ridge (35°12'24.77 "N / 24°19'16.78 "E). From here, continue in a westerly direction to the saddle and then descend steeply over this in a northerly direction into the streambed (if necessary, rappel from a tree).
Tour: We first walk in or next to the streambed until the stream soon deepens and the sequence of around 13 rappels begins. Then we reach the Sikia coming from the left and after another 10 rappels in the Sikia we have reached the road bridge. 2x30m ropes are used to cross several swimming pools dry if necessary if there is no water flow.]]>Rodakino B: Alternative Canyon End2024-04-25: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Rodakino Cette fiche concerne rodakino B.Sommes rentré dans le canyon juste en amont des grottes et de l'enchainement des rappels.Pour l'accès...

Access: From Réthymnon we drive south towards Armeni, Spili, Agia Galini. We drive through Armeni. Approximately 10 km further on we turn right in the direction of Agios Vasinos Sellia. It goes in western direction. After about 10 km (from the turnoff) the road bends south and we pass (high above the streambed) the Kotsifoú canyon. We ignore a road turning left and come to Sellia. Not descending towards Plakia, but continuing straight westward we come after an estimated 18 km to Kato Rodakino. We pass through the village. At its western exit we see a small unpaved parking area on the left. Park the car here.

Approach: From the parking lot at the church, we walk down the road for about 50m. We find a sign pointing the way to Kato Vrisi, a spring. We follow it, continue past the spring and come to a small stone bridge. We take the path here.
Tour: At the beginning and over almost 2/3 of the descent, smaller steps - all under 10m high - some of which can also be jumped. Many exit options, including onto 2 traversing paths. The water flow increases. A section with higher rappels then begins. The steepness then subsides and we reach the mouth of the Krikelopotamos river and thus the exit of the descent.]]>Roska: Parking at Entry2025-09-26: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Roska Beautiful canyon in fantastic scenery.

Access: From Karpenisi in a south-westerly direction to Prousos (31 km). From here continue in a southerly direction. Turn right off the main road to Thermos/Lampiri, continue straight on towards Kastania and descend to the bridge at the exit of the Mavri Spilia canyon. Continue past the village of Tornos to Kastania. Here we continue - now on a dirt road - in the direction of Prodromos. After 4.5 km we descend to the bridge over the Platanaki. Now we head up to Prodromos, through the scattered houses and on towards Grana. Before reaching the houses of Grana, we turn left at a sharp angle onto the road that branches off to Roska. From here, a 4WD vehicle is indicated. We park one car up in Roska by the church and the second down by the bridge over the Krikelopotamos river. If you only have one car available, you can walk the 4.2 km from the bridge over the Krikelopotamos river up to Roska on the dirt road. Alternatively, you can look for the entry at the bridge. In this case, you are limited to the particularly attractive final section of the canyon.
Return: Upstream in Krikelopotamos (check the water flow rate at the parking lot by the bridge!) We pass the Schleier Falls "Πανταβρέχι/Pantavrehi" (panta vrehi = everything is raining) and arrive at the bridge and our car for the exit after almost 3/4 hours.]]>Roska: Parking at Exit2025-09-26: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Roska Beautiful canyon in fantastic scenery.

Comment: 550m elevation

Approach: https://www.wikiloc.com/canyoneering-trails/hinweg-karagiannakis-canyon-172211206 Take the dirt road on the left that climbs very steeply for about 1.2 km to a picnic area. Take the wide path on the left, signed with blue marks, which goes horizontally into the Vatos valley, often running alongside some water pipes. Continue until crossing the Vatos. Continue on the left bank, following the faint goat path that goes up the slope, always signed with blue marks, and taking the pipes as a reference, until you reach a rocky spur that divides the Vatos valley from the Karaggiannaki valley. Continue into the Karagiannaki valley, parallel to the pipes, until you reach the riverbed.
Tour: (Upstream from the entry point there are other unequipped waterfalls, some of which have nearby trees that can be used as natural anchors.) After an initial 150 m long stretch with various downclimbs, you reach the first two rappels. This is followed by a 50 m long narrow part with other downclimbs and a nice toboggan. At the end of this stretch there is a possible escape route on the right. We continue going on the left orographic side, where there are two downclimbs of 10 and 7 m, to go to the right where there is one of 12 m. We return to the left for a further downclimb and for a diveable rappel. There are six further rappels, of which the third (8 m) and the sixth (9 m) are diveable, while the fourth (10 m) can be bypassed on the right. You arrive at the large landslide where it is difficult to orient yourself. Be careful of its instability. Although it can be crossed from both orographic sides, the easiest passage is on the left bank, following the course of the water. After the landslide you reach the confluence with the Vatos which you descend for 50 m until you reach an obvious and marked path on the right bank. Note that it is possible to continue with Vatos canyon down to the sea.]]>Karagiannaki: Parking Entry and Exit2025-10-01: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Karagiannaki Canyon (Quelle: https://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon-debit/22745/observations.html)

Access: If combining with Vatos and using a water taxi, see Vatos description for contacting Nicholas. Always following the signs for Pachia Ammos, until you find the dirt road on the left that leads to "KHMNIOTIZZA". Go up the dirt road for about 2 km until you reach a small clearing on the right, 100 m before the church and shortly after a steep dirt road on the left. Park the car. - If a 4WD vehicle is available, you can shorten both the approach and return by 20 minutes by taking the dirt road to the picnic area where you park.
Return: Take the path at the height of a large tree and continue uphill until you reach an oak tree grove. Take the wide, steep path on the right that quickly takes you to the picnic area. From here descend along the dirt road made during the approach until you reach the parked vehicle.

Approach: From the church, first climb northwards, then descend in a right-hand bend to the stream and the beginning of the gorge. If you want to avoid the pool filled with plastic garbage and the siphon in Part I, which is recommended, take the pathless access that starts behind the chapel and then descends keeping to the right. You will reach the stream between the 3rd and 4th drop.
Tour: If the siphon in the middle section really siphons - which is only to be expected at high water - it would be dangerous to dive through due to the strong current and the C25 immediately following. On the left wall, however, it is possible to climb over (with a handrail provided - but not easy! (In 2022, the rope was only wrapped around a "stalagtite" and could slip off - not hang fully into the rope traverse) However, a 50 m rappelling route must then also be mastered here. Otherwise, the longest rappel would be 35m. On the first rappel in part I, you should leave a rope hanging as a precaution in case you need to climb back down if the bolt above the siphon cannot be climbed (fixed rope available in 2008). You should also have a step sling ready here so that you can free yourself from the hanging belay.]]>Portela: Canyon End2026-01-28: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Portella Observations:- The upper section is really dirty.- The rope for getting out of the rotten pool is still in place.- Uninteresting midd...

Drive around 50 km to Georgios, then take the winding mountain road via Karpenisi down to the Tauropos River. Continue uphill on the road towards Agri(nion). About 3 km after crossing the river (at a small pavilion), the road to (Nea-)Viniani turns off at a sharp angle to the right (north). At the exit of the village or the bypass, a dirt road turns off to the right after a hollow in the terrain, which leads to a sheepfold about 150 m to the north. Shortly before this, there is a good parking space for the car.\nA second car can be parked a little above the arched bridge over the Tauropos. To get there, drive back from the upper parking area onto the tarred road, turn left towards the national road and left again at the pavilion. After a few hundred meters, take a sharp right turn onto a dirt road and follow this until you reach a downhill section that leads to an arched bridge over the river Tauropos. Depending on the condition of the slope, park the car before the steep section. Note: If you are coming from the other (Adriatic) side (Igoumenitsa, Ioannina), you can drive to (Nea-)Viniani via Agri(nion) and the Acheloos reservoir.

Approach: From the vehicle, a bad track leads downhill at an acute angle to the path on which we came, initially heading southwest. Then it bends to the east and we are in the valley. We follow the track along the right-hand side of the valley until a suitable access to the left into the stream presents itself.
Tour: A total of 15 rappels. If the first rappels are largely blocked with pipes, you can bypass them on the rock to the left above. There are several options for the 82m rappel with various transfers, in particular a "dry" variant of the Via Ferrata is offered, even with water flow. The 82m rappel can be abseiled on the edge at the top right outside the waterfall. There is an intermediate stand after 32m, then 50m. There is a siphon here if the water flow is high. If this is to be feared, the section can be bypassed via the Via Verrata. If this option is chosen, however, the verticality rating changes to VI. The belay is very exposed via the Via Ferrata, but can be reached safely. (An emergency exit is also possible from there. 2022 explored but not verified. The beginning is already quite exposed climbing in the third degree). If you rappel from the chain anchor at the exit of the via ferrata, it goes down about 30 meters and 10 meters to the side downstream. There you will find the next belay (follow the rock ledge and make sure you clip in on the way). The intermediate belay is located at the exit of a very narrow ledge and offers space for a maximum of two people (no visual contact with the first belay). From here, rappel approx. 65m. See an extreme situation in the video: https://youtu.be/138eS5x-tEo (the first canyonist on the right on the usual abseil route, the others then to the left of the via ferrata, but not from the exit, but from the middle...). Headlamp not absolutely necessary as long as the tour is undertaken "during the day". The enclosed area after the C82 is in twilight. Directly after the c82 comes a c25, mc3, R12 or c8, r3 after which you are back in daylight and almost at the exit of the canyon. This is followed by C5, C6 under clamping block, c4.]]>Arvi: Canyon End2025-04-07: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Arvi Canyon superbe si on fait abstraction des nombreux tuyaux et de la fiantes des pigeons dans la partie obscure.

Access: From Ierapetra westwards along the sea (rarely seen) to Myrtos (14 km). Past the village, the road (no. 97) turns inland towards Ano Viannos and climbs uphill. After 16 km we turn left at Kefalovrisi and drive to Amiras. From there we drive with two cars down to the village of Arvi by the sea (if we only have 1 car, we turn off onto the road on the left about 4.3 km after Amiras - large trees on the left before the road, open space behind it, 2008 - and leave the car here). When we arrive in Arvi, it is best to park one car at the eastern end of the harbor (about 700 m from the exit). With the other one we drive back and up again for 6.7 km. Where there are some larger trees on the right-hand side after a treeless area (east of the road and north of the track), we take the track that goes eastwards here. After about 100 m, at the junction, take the northbound track (i.e. left), at the next junction 200 m further on, take the track to the right (eastbound). Continue along the slope at the same height for another 600 m until you reach the place before a sharp left-hand bend, where you park the vehicle.

From here head north towards Malés. Shortly before reaching this village, turn left and drive past Malés in the direction of Christos. We cross the Sarakinas River and park our car (for access) 80m after the bridge on the area to the right of the road
Return: After a conspicuous deciduous tree on top of 2 rocks in the streambed, look for a convenient exit option on the left bank. On an indistinct but wide meadow path you reach the bridge, cross the river on it and take the path up the opposite slope until you reach a large storage building ("P (2)" at the 2nd right-hand serpentine. From here continue uphill, turn right at the T-junction and up to the main road at the entrance to the village of Christos. Do not enter the village here, but turn right down the main road to the parking lot "P(1)".

If we have 2 cars, we can park one car for the exit at Moni Kliston (risk of burglary).
Return: Where we see a children's swing hanging from a tree in the bottom of the stream, we take the path out to the right and up to the monastery. If we have only parked one car at the top of the road serpentine, it makes sense for the driver without luggage to pick up the car and the others with luggage to get in at the monastery.]]>Gouras, Φαράγγι Γκούρας: Canyon StartApproach: We follow the hiking trail (according to Wikiloc under Links) to the stream crossing (entry).

Comment: etwa 100m vor Beginn der Verengung

Approach: Shuttle via Egirousa, see also links. From the lower parking lot at the exit, first head west on the road for just under 800 m. Here the forest path goes up in a southerly direction. Due to the forest fires, the path (first to the south, then to the northeast) is somewhat difficult to find at the beginning where the path turns clearly to the northeast. Shortly after the path bends clearly to the south again, there is a small path on the left that leads us to the canyon.
Tour: About 18 rappels, the 25m rappel can be broken. Sea view at the exit]]>Milon, Φαράγγι Μύλων: Canyon End2025-10-09: A very beautiful canyon, just wear normal clothes instead of a wetsuit. The rock is quite slippery so be careful on the downclimbs. The beach at the exit is awesome.

Comment: es folgt zunächst die lange Laufstrecke

Approach: From the parking lot for the exit, continue up the bad slope. When you reach the parking lot for access, turn left at an acute angle. First down the dirt road where the path exits, keeping left to the streambed (entry). Leaving the slope to the left, an inconspicuous path leads upwards, which later reaches the slope again.
Tour: First we have to walk and downclimb in the dry streambed (over 30 minutes) before we reach the 1st rappel. This is followed by 4 rappels, 2 of which exit in a Marmita Trampa. Both dry pools can be climbed around on the right. This is followed by another 15 to 20 minutes of walking and downclimbing until we find an exit to the left up the bank.]]>Stefani: Canyon End2024-04-23: If you like dry gorges, this one is quite pretty.

Access: From the E09 south of Kalo Nero, turn inland and drive via Rachel to the Peristeria archaeological site: https://www.google.de/maps/dir/37.28563,21.7022188/37.2749933,21.7399393/@37.286637,21.7105916,3614m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en&entry=ttu park there. Van den Berge starts on the northern side of the forebay, which seems suboptimal compared to the route suggested here.

Comment: unterhalb der Straßenbrücke

Approach: From the car on the road back to the bridge. Get in there. Since the first 3 drops were not secured, I suspect that you can descend directly from the edge of the excavation site into the pot before the last step, or even rappel. This would save you the unpleasant part.
Tour: The first two steps are just as unprotected as the 3rd step. Only the final abseil offers a sling. Up to the final abseil, the forest canyon is muddy and without any interest. Directly above the final abseil the ambience becomes attractive. The last rappel leads down into a usually open siphon. At high water it will usually be dammed up, which is why van den Berge warns against this situation in his book. A little later you reach the picnic area with spring and connection to the hiking trail.]]>Peristeria: Canyon End2023-05-22: Mud slogging in an inadequately secured forest ditch, which only becomes a highlight in the last few meters.

Approach: We take the dirt road leading northwards. Where it loses itself, we see a cairn on the righthand side, which leads us up to the right. After a while we come to a generally dry streambed, which we climb down to the entry point into the stream.
Tour: First many smaller steps with beautiful pools, small slides and possible jumps. Then we come to the 36m waterfall. Tourists can be seen bathing at its foot. This is followed by a smaller waterfall and finally the rappel into the river Neda (from the tree -2023).

Approach: For entry to superior: Continue uphill on the dirt road for about 2 km, leaving the antennas on the right and going left at the next forks, until the end of the road. Take the obvious uphill path indicated by the blue marks and E6 signage. Cross the small tributary that you meet after 300 m. Continue for just over 1.2 km, always uphill, in a forest of oaks and ferns, until a fork (altitude 680 m). Take the obvious path on the left, downhill, until you reach the banks of the Tsivdogianni. For entry to inferior: From the parking lot, follow the road uphill that crosses the residential area until it turns into a dirt road. Continue until you reach the two cylindrical water collection cisterns where you must turn left. Continue climbing until you reach a horse paddock where the dirt road turns into a path. Cross the fence and continue climbing through a thick meadow of ferns, and then walk alongside a black PVC pipe for a short distance. The path, used to go to the top of Mount Fengari, continues climbing in zigzags and becomes increasingly clear. Continue until you reach a clear fork where you need to turn left onto the blue marked path. Continue along the slope, entering the Tsivdogianni valley, where the slope decreases. After a short stretch, leave the main path and take the faint trail to the left, still marked in blue, which approaches the stream gradually and in a false flat, until it meets the PVC pipe again. Continue taking the pipe as a reference and, after passing a narrow ledge, descend to the left into a gully until reaching the riverbed.]]>Tsivdogianni: Canyon Start2025-06-18: Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Tsivdogianni Dernier canyon parcouru de l'île, en intégral. 1ère partie pas terrible, la fin est mieux.

Return: After the last rappel continue until you come across an old concrete wall, after which the canyon opens up and the riverbed becomes completely stony. You will shortly reach the exit signed with blue marks. Climb the small slope to reach two large plastic pipes.

Approach: From the junction, follow the slope in a zigzag down to the bottom (with 4x4 also possible to the entry). The first rappel is at the ford.
Tour: The first two rappels begin beautifully incised with water, which then quickly disappears into the streambed. This is followed by a longer, dry walking passages. This is followed by more rappels, but this time with a deeper cut. Following a chute, which may have brackish water here, you then suddenly rappel into clear water that comes out of a semicircle into the basin. The further course is almost cave-like in places. The water is cold but crystal clear and you can usually downclimb the steps. However, you have to walk a little to get to the exit.]]>Korovesou: Canyon End2024-06-06: Surprisingly beautiful canyon with some walking passages.

Approach: From the car park, behind the repeaters, a steep, stony, 2 m wide path starts, very obvious and marked with blue marks. Continue along the path until you reach a flat clearing where you will find the ruins of refuge (altitude 900 m). Go past the ruins and continue along the path, which follows the crest, to an area with large trees at the base of a high rocky spur. Go around the rocky spur on the right side and climb steeply, overcoming difference in height of about 20 m, to find a passage between the rocks and look out over a large landslide. Follow the landslide zigzagging between large boulders and brambles, referring to the blue marks, going up and down, to climb up the hill in front. Arrive at the saddle that divides the Fonias valley from the Angistros valley (altitude 1010 m), and find a double Y-shaped arrow, drawn in blue, which marks the crossroads between the paths for Angistros and Giali. Turn left and continue downhill into the drainage basin of a tributary of the Angistros, which is initially dry but is soon fed by small resurgences and small tributaries. Continue down the riverbed until the beginning of the verticality where you intercept, on the right bank (altitude 790), a trail, indicated with blue marks, which allows you to skip some uninteresting and not equipped differences in height. Follow the path for 200 meters and then return to the bed of the tributary until the confluence with the main branch of the Angistros which comes from the right and carries the same amount of water.
Tour: See topo.
