Itinerary description

També coneguda per Dead's Gorge (gorja dels morts) pels forats que s'hi troben a les parets del tram final, tombes de l'època Minoïca. Es pot fer en poc més de dues hores i tenen premi al final, ja que acaben a la platja. Són molt fàcils de baixar i força autèntiques, paga la pena anar-hi si hem arribat fins a Kato Zakros.


Zakros Gorge is also know as the Gorge of the Dead. In the gorge there are caves within which have been found to be Minoan burial tombs, hence the name. It presents no difficulties in summer. More or less two hours walking down with the nice beach of Kato Zakros at the end.
