The Forest Directorate of Chania announced on Friday that the Samaria Gorge will be open again for visitors from 7 o’ clock in the morning on Saturday, June 12 throughout the main route Xyloskalo-Aghia Roumeli.
The crossing of the Gorge will follow the health protocols that have been decided and provided that weather conditions allow.
Otherwise the Forest Directorate will propose alternative routes or forbid the entrance of visitors, the statement said.
“The Samaria Gorge is a unique natural ecosystem of great beauty and its crossing is a very difficult and a lengthy process,” it was added.
