Attention! The heavy rains of the last years have damaged many gorges and many paths have been destroyed so they are no longer accessible. You could inform us for such cases, so we update the listings in our website.

Skaloti is one of the many parallel canyons of the wider area of Fragokastelo. It is a small canyon, 2km long, starting from the beautiful plateau Manikas and ending at the seaside village Skaloti after 2:30 hours hiking in an old stone paved path with steep slopes. The canyon is initially open and then narrows and the walls gets vertical. The vegetation is mainly limited to bushes and brushwood. The stream Perama crosses the gorge and empties on the beach of Lakki.
