Samaria National Park’s dramatic Samaria Gorge, limestone walls, and seasonal wildflowers offer high-contrast landscapes and layered depth. Visit in late spring or early autumn for softer light, calmer crowds, and comfortable hiking. Access is via Omalos (start) and Agia Roumeli (end); daytime entry rules apply—check current park opening hours, shuttle schedules, and required hike timing.
