ハニアでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The Rodopos Peninsula, approximately 18 kilometers long, juts out into the Cretan Sea like an outstretched finger, measuring about 5 kilometers at its widest point. The peninsula is located in the western part of Crete's north coast. To its west lies the Bay of Kissamos and, about 15 kilometers away, the Gramvousa Peninsula with its offshore rocky islets of Imeri Gramvousa and Agria Gramvousa. To the east of Rodopos stretches the Bay of Chania. A mountain ridge runs through the peninsula from north to south, its highest peaks being Onichas (748 meters) and Spitakiou Korfi (646 meters). The northwesternmost point is Cape Spatha, which also marks the northernmost extent of the island of Crete.

Rodopos (Greek: Χερσόνησος Ροδοπού) is a sparsely populated peninsula in the northwestern part of the Greek island of Crete. Smaller settlements exist only in the southern part of the peninsula. The north, where the remains of an ancient sanctuary are located, is largely undeveloped. In antiquity, the peninsula was called Tityros (Τίτυρος).

A beautiful chapel by the wayside.

Fresh drinking water is usually available at the entrance.

The gorge apparently has two names, depending on where you start from.

The Deliana Gorge is fun to hike in.

You don't always see them, the griffon vultures.
