Description
Like many visitors on Crete we went down the Samaria Gorge as all other tourists. But that area was crowded and there were only few good views to wildlife. Then, a bit disappointed we climbed the small trail that leads to top the top of the gorge. The landscape was so beautiful with splended views of Kızıl akbaba and we could even see the wild goat Kri-kri. Among the other birds you can encounter here are Ak Karınlı Ebabil, Kaya kırlangıcı, Sakallı akbaba, Gökardıç and Kara Kulaklı Kuyrukkakan.

Access
Park at the parking lot for the Samaria Gorge. However, do not enter the gorge and do not pay for it but instead of climbing down, climb up. But note: the trail is very narrow and becomes smaller and smaller. So if you do not feel good you sould return. However, if you dare walking you will be rewarded with splended views into the gorge and some good birds.
