Richtis Gorge [1] is a state protected park near Exo Mouliana, Sitia, eastern Crete. It starts at the traditional village Exo Mouliana, which is located on the national road between Agios Nikolaos and Sitia and ends at the secluded Richtis beach, just east of the village Kalavros. The hiking trail is about 5 km in length of easy(spring/summer/autumn) to moderate(winter) difficulty. Rich vegetation (mainly platanus trees and local flowers and herbs) can be observed along the way, as well as old stone bridges and water mills before it culminates with the Richtis Waterfall and beach: Pictures1, Pictures2.
