Hiking

The Kourtaliotiko Gorge (Greek Κουρταλιώτικο φαράγγι) is a mountain range in the south of the Greek island of Crete, between the mountains of western Kouroupa and eastern Xiro. It is located in the municipality of Finikas in the regional unit of Rethymno. The bottom of the gorge is formed by the creek bed of the Megalopotamos (Μεγαλοπόταμος) or Kourtaliotis (Κουρταλιώτης), one of the ten watercourses on Crete that constantly flow down to the sea.
