Sfakiano gorge Sfakiano gorge Sfakiano gorge

In the south of Chania Prefecture walked our association (Naturalist Club Heraklion). We met another gorge in Sfakia region, the 'Sfakiano', which crosses the county and is located between Imbros gorge to east and Kavis gorge to west.

Our walk started from the small plateau 'Niatos' (alt. 1200 m) of the White Mountains, above the well-known plateau Askifou. We followed the path and passing south east of the abandoned village of Lakki, we continued downhill in the bed of the ravine and ended near its exit to the sea, 2 km east from Hora Sfakion coastal village.

If you want to enter the Sfakiano gorge from the level of Agios Pavlos chapel: You should take the westward road by the church at Imbros village center. After about 3.6 km it makes a sharp right turn, at this point you should choose a road to the left (southward). Walk about 20 minutes by this second road and you will find an iron chain across the road descending to the chapel and to Sfakiano gorge.
