AGIOS IOANNIS (Village) SFAKIA
The road from Aradena to Agios Ioannis goes through a very attractive
pine forest, one of the very few in Crete, and it has a view of the clear waters
of the Libyan Sea from high up and the bulk of the Lefka Ori from the south.
ARADENA (Settlement) SFAKIA
The impressive gorge of Aradena starts from the Lefka Ori north of
the village of Aradena, and ends up in the sea, south of Aradena. You may walk
down through the Aradena Gorge and exit near Marmara on the south coast. There
is a path from Aradena that allows you to descend into the gorge. The walk may
take 3 to 4 hours as it is 7km from the Aradena entrance to the sea. You should
not attempt the walk without ample water, boots, and arrangements to be picked
up at the walk's end. A path at the bottom goes to Marmara beach, Finikas, Loutro,
and Hora Sfakion. The coastal path is narrow and quite dangerous in places between
Loutro and Hora Sfakion. Alternatively, you can walk to Loutro and take the boat
to Hora Sfakion.
