The Mili Gorge is located southeast of the town Rethymno. It has a unique beauty, rich in flora and fauna and is famous for the remains of stone houses and ca, 30 watermills. The walk through the gorge starts either from the old village of Mili or higher up from Chromonastiri and ends at Missiria just 3 km east of Rethymno. The Mili Stream, fed by the surrounding springs, once carried great amounts of water needed to keep the mills working, all the year round.
