There are various trekking opportunities in the island's gorges. The one that follows the Samaria gorges is superb, yet too crowded, so it should be avoided during summer when it becomes impossible to enjoy nature or even see wild goats! The Aradena gorges are less crowded, but the trek is harder and includes a rock climbing passage. Yet the gorges, the villages and the nature are magnificent, and you will not regret the effort. The Milatas caves are sheltered by rock banks, with monasteries and villages nestled at the heart of the plateaus. You can also find old castles and abandoned chapels here.
