Richtis CRETE INFO
Richtis Gorge is one of the most popular gorges to hike in east Crete. It's known for its lush, natural landscape that's quite different from the usual dry, rocky terrain you'll find on the Greek island. Richtis Gorge Trail (Φαράγγι του Ρίχτη) The route starts northeast from the village of Exo Mouliana, between Agios Nikolaos and Sitia and follows the bed of the Lachana stream to the north, towards the rocky Richtis beach. The story goes that a group of about 60 ethnic Turks were walking towards Sitia to catch a ship that would take them to Turkey. As they crossed the Lachanas bridge some local Greeks trapped them on the bridge and slaughtered them. Eastern Crete is home to the magnificent Richtis Gorge, where a refreshing and cool hike in the woods will lead you to a majestic waterfall. Are you ready to discover more?

It's a green, lush waterfall located in the middle of a forest at the east of the island. From a medium long hike from the parking lot, you will reach the waterfall in about an hour. It is a 'must do' when visiting Crete. Crete is a the biggest island of Greece. Many tourists visit this place every year and I can understand why. Located in the prefecture of Lassithi, between Agios Nikolaos and Sitia on the northern coast, it follows the stream which flows all year round, creating a splendid waterfall. The track begins a little outside the village of Exo Mouliana and ends up at the beach of Richtis, east of Kalavros village.
