Searching for a nice and easy Canyon to hike near Hersonissos but you do not want to spend hours in the car?

This is Aposelemis, the largest and geologically most impressive canyon in the northern Heraklion region, just a few kilometers from Hersonissos.

The area of the canyon is of special naturalistic interest, full of herbs, lygaries, skinos trees, wild olives, oleanders, plane and carob trees along its length.

At the beautiful and impressive vertical cliffs that reach a height of up to 200 meters live vultures, ravens, wild doves, and many other birds.

The canyon is 4,5 kilometers long, and the path is quite smooth without technical difficulties.You do not need special equipment, just normal hiking or running shoes, comfortable clothes, and water. At some places you have to climb on big rocks. It is not extreme, but be careful, some stones are slippery.

The route is easy to follow, the hikking time is 2 hours .

Why we choose the Tom18 multi tool? Because it will not get rusty over time. We have tried dozens of different mini tools in the past. Tom SKS tools are the only ones that will be the same after years of use.

The only disadvantage, they do not have a 2mm Allen key to adjust the Shimano derailleur limit screws.

We provide mini repair kit with all our bikes.

Bought from Aliexpress after a review on

At the moment, it works perfectly. It is not cheap and will not replace the original Shimano cable. But for a person like me who always forgets to charge his personal bike, it is not a bad idea to include this tiny thing in the saddle bag.

The most famous seasons for cycling are spring and Autum.

April and May are the most beautiful months the nature is full of flowers, and everything is green. The only disadvantage is that if you want to swim 🏊‍♂️ the sea is still cold.

From the other side, if you come in September or October, the sea is warm and is very comfortable to swimm but everything is dry (after the summer that there is no rain).

Summer is also recommended but weak up early in the morning. Go to the mountains when it is cool and return before 13:00.

From November to February or March, the weather is mostly good for cycling. The daylight is fewer hours. A ride from 9:30- 16:30. The only disadvantage is that you do not know when the weather will be bad 🌧
