Hiking

The Asfendou Gorge is the parallel to the Φαράγγι Καλλικράτη and, like it, connects a summer village located at about 700 m with 2-3 villages of the coastal plain, where the inhabitants spent the winter (Kolokasia, Nomikianá, Vuvás). Until road connections were built in the 1970s, there was heavy traffic here all year round.

Hiking

Not quite as nice to walk as the Kallikratis Gorge, but the centuries-old goat trails can still be seen here.
