Mountaineering
The river doesn't seem to be very deep or rapid, as you can see a number of people wading through it from above. Only later does it become apparent that the Megapolotamos flows into the sea after a right-hand bend. The river is lined with palm trees and looks like an oasis from above.

Hiking
The view of the Megalopotamos, the Preveli Gorge, and the Libyan Sea is one of Crete's most spectacular natural panoramas. Steep rock faces, lush vegetation, and the glittering sea combine here to create an unforgettable picture.
