May 22, 2025,Von Golden Beach Hotel durch Myli Schlucht nach Mili Gorge Tavern

From the Golden Beach Hotel, first follow the main road, then follow quiet roads through the village, past numerous olive trees, to the entrance of the Mili Gorge. A beautiful path through the gorge with a babbling stream and several rest stops leads to the taverna at the top. Then return the same way to the hotel. Beautiful and varied.
