Samaria Gorge - The fresco head (Kefalofryssias)

On the hike you cross the “river” again and again, in order to finally hike in the actual river bed for a while.

Depending on season, rainfall and snowmelt, there is little up to so much water here that the gorge is completely inaccessible.

While walking around Kefalofryssis in the river bed, the walls to the left and right can get considerably steep and high.
