Agali Gorge Φαράγγι Αγάλης

Agali Gorge Φαράγγι Αγάλης. A beautiful gorge, climbing to the top of Dirfis, passing through many, small but remarkable habitats. The Agali gorge is located west of Dirfis, moving uphill, heading southwest to northwest, at a distance of 6km. The ideal route is the circular that starts and ends at the village of Agios Athanasios and is 18 km long, four of which are on a path in the gorge, 10 on rural roads and the last 4 on the asphalt road connecting the villages of Loutsa and Ag . Athanasios. Its longest stretch is through a stream that is dry in the summer and autumn, while in the spring it fills water and forms beautiful lakes and waterfalls. This stream originates from the sources Arkoudovrysi and Kryovrisi, in the gorge, which are also the main sources of the Messapios River. At two points the gorge drains and the paths are directed towards the Voidokleftra cave, the first and the top of the Dirfy the second. The name "Agali", as the inhabitants say, comes from "agali" as in the many narrow and uphill areas the walkers are obliged to travel slowly. An important advantage over other gorges is the safe and secure path, as well as the comfortable road access to the entrance. Following the route you will pass by cliffs, slopes, small torrents, riparian forests, small meadows and a series of small ecosystems.
