    Hiking

    The river runs through large parts of the gorge, not always carrying water but the river flow is always present.

    Unfortunately, swimming is prohibited as the river carries drinking water.

    Hiking

    I did the tour from bottom to top, about half of the kilometers and what can I say were the same as the whole route. And it was definitely worth it, 1 day travel to Agia Roumeli, 2 days hiking, then Lutro with overnight stay and delicious dinner in the evening, the next day departure by ferry to the starting point.
