The Myli Gorge is located very close to the city of Rethymnon. You hike along a small, fairly well-maintained path through beautiful vegetation and pass several small churches, the old abandoned village of Myli, and many old watermills. The watermills date back to the Venetian era and have given the gorge the name "The Valley of the Mills." It’s a lovely hike for the whole family.
The hike is possible alle year round!
