We hiked this trail on 29/09/21. It is not very long, but quite diverse. The first part - ascent, partly on beautiful KALDERIMI (ancient Turkish highways for mules), with panoramic views. Then comes the descent in Figou gorge - nice forested terrain, the path not easy, but not too difficult. Much less crowded and much more interesting than adjacent Irini gorge - and it is a loop trail, so much easier logistics.
Thanks! Yes very diverse and intresting walk. Hope it was not too dangerous
