Το φαράγγι της Κάπνης είναι ένα από τα πιο εντυπωσιακά φαράγγια των Ανατολικών Σφακίων και παραμένει παντελώς άγνωστο στον περισσότερο κόσμο. Η αρχή του ανοικτού ρέματος της Κάπνης που σιγά σιγά γίνεται φαράγγι είναι νότια της κορυφής Ακονές στην περιοχή Χιονίστρα πάνω στο δρόμο ανάμεσα στα χωριά Ασκύφου και Ασφένδου Σφακίων.
Το φαράγγι του Ξηρόκαμπου – Ζίρου, το οποίο ονομάζεται και φαράγγι Λαμνώνι, αποτελεί ένα από τα πλέον άνυδρα φαράγγια της Ανατολικής Κρήτης. Η διάβαση του διαρκεί περίπου 2 ώρες και η κατάβαση του είναι αρκετά εύκολη και ομαλή. Το φαράγγι έχει χαρακτηριστική άγρια ομορφιά, με γυμνά ψηλά τοιχώματα και χαμηλή βλάστηση. Καθ’όλη τη διάρκεια της διαδρομής, θα βλέπετε στον ορίζοντα το απέραντο γαλάζιο του Λιβυκού Πελάγους.
At the east sides of the volcano-like peak of Strouboulas (seen from Heraklion), you will meet the small plateau of Strouboulas. It is a typical limestone plateau with limited vegetation due to overgrazing, but it hides wild beauty. At one side, you will meet the chapel of Saint George and at its lowest place, a small pond is formed in the winter. This small unknown wetland is highly dependant on the rainfalls. The water is reddish due to the grounds that remind of African landscapes.
Although it cannot be classified as a defensive tower, however, it has prevailed with the name of Tower. The tower, which belonged to George and Francesco Modinos, still survives in very good condition. It is attached to the scenic old church of Panagia Rogdia.
A small castle was located near the village Sitanos of Sitia Region, namely Skalia. Skalia was a small village with a few residents built atop a mountain slope, where the outer walls of the houses formed a wall that surrounded the village, while from the north it was protected by cliffs.
The monastery of St. Andrew was built long ago in one of the most isolated shores of the Mirabello Province, near Finokalia village. Today the old monastery does not survive, but a small church of St. Andrew has been built at the same site.
