Description
The waterfalls in Klados Gorge are among the most remote and least accessible waterfall systems in Crete. They are not single, easy-to-visit falls, but rather a chain of steep canyon waterfalls hidden inside a very rugged and technical gorge west of Samaria.
In total, Klados is said to contain dozens of waterfalls (up to ~40+), including some that drop from heights of around 40–70 meters, especially in its upper sections. Most of them are only passable with climbing equipment, which is why the gorge is considered one of the most dangerous in Crete.
