Itinerary description
Pretty unknown gorge goes parallel with well known Avakas Gorge. I did try to discover it from sea side, it is impossible without rock climbing gear. From the opposite end of sea , possible to go thru with hiking rope. you can go down on giant rocks in river bed from above.
Cellphone not works! If you get trouble may die here!! seriously as many goats did, they couldn't get out or miss the steps on the rocks. Falling rocks are fairly common due goats activities so watch above as well not only your steps.

Beautiful several hundreds years old Olive trees
They are guardians of the Gorge, like Ents from Lord of the Rings.
