It begins after the last houses in Imvros and ends at the Komitades village. The first part passes through a forest of cypress, bushes and maples. In less than an hour’s hike we reach the middle of the canyon, where thre is a venetian puddle of water. From this part on, the most impressive route begins, with the walls of the canyon nearly touching each other in many parts.
The trail is not very hard, takes around 3 hours, and the first exit of the canyon of Imvros leads to the asphalt road that goes to Sfakia.
