A beautiful green gorge near Patsos village, Rethymnon, at an altitude of 490m. We start crossing it from Agios Antonios Cave down to Potami Dam. The hike is mainly in the shade of big platan trees. In some parts, we may slip into the water or wade. Therefore, mobile phones should be protected and second clothes and shoes should be left on the bus.

After the end of the hike, the bus takes us to a nearby beach to swim and relax.
