The most enchanting route — a whole day spent in the waters of the Acheron. The constantly changing scenery, the pools that form along the way and the dense vegetation that often covers the river make crossing the gorge a unique experience. About 25% of the route is swimming and the rest is walking. Never do it alone — there is no way out before the Dala Bridge. A special waterproof bag is essential.
