KOUNAVIANO GORGE

Vegetation in the gorges Knosano, Astrakiano and Kounaviano is wild and the waters rich; this is why there are so many mills and aqueducts from various historical periods accompanying hikers along whatever trail they choose.

Kounaviano Gorge is the second main branch of the Karteros River. At its end it meets the second tributary branch (Astrakiano Gorge) and together they end up at the sea, 5 kilometres later.

The trail begins at the biological treatment plant in Peza and follows the banks of the river/gorge along a lush green path; there are wooden bridges with railings at its hardest points.
