AtlasCrete - Rethymno

Kria Vrisi

verified Ungraded Unknown flood risk Kria Vrisi, Rethymno

The biggest vertical relief of any Rethymno canyon in this atlas at 862 m, a long 3500 m line that eats a full five hour day and needs an 8 km shuttle.

Also published as Gorge de Kria Vrisi. Ropewiki carries the trip statistics but leaves difficulty, rappel data, rock type and red tape entirely blank, so this entry is deliberately thin on technical detail. Descente-Canyon.com is the only linked beta source. Most recent ropewiki condition report dates to 26 Feb 2015.
