What To Expect

Arriving in the entrance of Kourtaliotiko gorge, we are immediately amazed by the majestic walls that stand hundreds of meters high. We take the stone steps that lead us to the source of the river that formed this scenery through the ages. There, we can visit the little church of S. Nicolas Kourtaliotis. Then, the instructors will give a safety briefing so that we can understand the use of our gear and learn to trust it.

The source of Kourtaliotiko river becomes a natural playground for us!
