Hiking Tinos Villages, Tinos
Discover the geologically significant, lunar-like scenery of Tinos Island.
Overview
As you stroll through the rocks, you'll make your way toward Exomvourgo Hill to admire the Venetian fortress. Here you'll find a small hamlet reminiscent of the famous galactic village of Asterix. The townspeople here were famous basket weavers, and many still practice the craft today. While walking through the streets, keep an eye out for weavers or artisans selling baskets, many made of bamboo, willow, and osier shoots.
After leaving Volax, you'll start a moderate hike through the Tinian countryside. Your guide will lead you along a route, passing dovecotes, watermills, and a medieval Catholic village with arches and traditional houses. Wander through the town's narrow alleys and climb the stone steps to access different levels and views.
Finish your hiking tour at Kolimbithra Beach for a refreshing swim and some free time to relax. Then, enjoy lunch in the picturesque town of Kalloni. Fill your belly at a traditional tavern, savoring froutalia (Greek omelet), roast beef with tomato sauce, local cheese, louza (dried spiced pork), and more.
