Richtis Gorge

This is one of the most beautiful small gorges of Eastern Crete, following a well-marked route. 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.It is one of the most popular and often crowded gorges in the area, especially during the weekend in the summer season. One of the reasons for its popularity is that it doesn’t dry up during the summer like some neighbouring gorges.
