River trekking is an enjoyable and refreshing activity, particularly during the warm summer months. It doesn’t require technical gear like ropes or rappelling, nor does it involve challenging passages. Only essential protective gear, such as helmets, is used to maintain safety standards.
Essentially, river trekking is an adventurous hike along the riverbed, navigating between large boulders, small waterfalls, and swimming spots. It is a delightful experience for individuals, families, or small groups.

River trekking involves hiking through a riverbed, which means playing and diving in the water, and discovering hidden paradises deep within the river.
The Kourtaliotiko Gorge is quite extensive and is divided into two sections: the first part stretches from its famous springs to the middle, and the second part extends from the middle to the gorge’s exit. On this trip, we will hike through the second part of the river, which is more challenging, tricky, and demanding in some areas. Large boulders and small waterfalls provide an escape from your daily routine and offer a sense of adventure. This is what makes river trekking unique—an adventurous experience that is both fun and safe!
The river concludes at the renowned Preveli Beach, known for its palm tree forest, one of the few in Crete. Here, you will have the opportunity to swim at one of Greece’s most iconic beaches. Afterwards, we will hike back to the starting point along a beautiful trail with stunning views of the surroundings.
