(located 6-7 kilometers west of the villa in the village of Kanevos and the tavern iliomanolis) The gorge of Kotsifos is smaller than the neighboring Kourtaliotiko gorge, but equally impressive. It is located between the peaks of Kouroupa (984 m) and Krioneritis (1.312 m). It is 2 kilometers long and the elevation difference between the highest point of the route in the gorge and the outlet is 390 meters.

The Kotsifos Gorge (Greek: Φαράγγι Κοτσιφού) is a gorge on the southern side of the western part of the island of Crete. It is situated west of the mountain of Kouroupa, north of the town of Plakias, and on the road between Sellia and Angouseliana. It is noted for the high number of Cretan endemic plant species that grow there.

The small canyon of Kotsifos starts from the village of Kanevos of Agios Vassilios and ends north of the village of Plakias, on the beach of which ends the stream of Kotsifos that flows through the canyon. The beginning of the canyon is very narrow at a width of about 10 meters, which gradually increases and reaches about 600 meters width. Its total length is 1800 meters, and its vertical sides reach a height of 500 meters. Between the imposing rocks there is a narrow asphalt road. At the southern exit of the canyon is the very picturesque stone-built church of Agios Nikolaos, which is built in a rocky cavity at the height of the road and was renovated relatively recently. In winter, an impressive small waterfall is created on the east side.
