Countryside & Walks

The islands offer walkers some of the most stunning views anywhere in the Mediterranean. The first thing to do is to decide what sort of view you prefer – dramatic cliffs plunging into waves, the rocky, scrubland of the garrigue or hidden, lush valleys. En route, you’ll come across mysterious, prehistoric sites, cave chapels and secluded Knights' palaces.

In Malta, areas that make excellent day hikes, are Mellieha, Dingli, Ghar Lapsi, Fawwara, Wardija; all the North of the island and the various bays; the South coast with its fishing villages and Delimara Point.

Gozo in its entirety is excellent walking country. The Ta'Cenc cliff walk is stunning.  Ta’ Dgiebi, near San Lawrenz, the Gordan Lighthouse near Ghasri, Honoq ir-Rummien near Qala and San Blas Valley near Nadur are all excellent walking areas. The possibilities are endless. Don’t miss tiny Comino , ideal for a good day’s hiking and the ultimate in solitude and views.
