Walking Holidays in Malta - Gozo - Gozo Self Guided and Guided

Gozo - Single or Multi-Centred

The Island

Gozo is the second largest of the Maltese Archipelago and means Joy in Castillian. Measuring only 14km by 7km its magical atmosphere enraptures thousands of visitors.

This beautiful island is steeped in history as Phoenicians, Arabs, Normans, Spanish, French and British have occupied the island all leaving their cultural mark for the future visitor to discover.

There pervades a sleepy pace and rustic charm contrasting with its much busier and larger neighbour the island of Malta.

The Gozitans are all very friendly and especially welcoming to English speaking visitors and English is widely spoken.

The Walking

Walking in Gozo The walker is never far away from Gozo’s spectacular amazing coastline with its towering cliffs falling in sheer drops to the clear waters tiny creeks coves and hidden beaches of red sand. Walk through quiet village streets over green hills and through picturesque valleys and finish the day with a dip in crystal clear waters in a quiet blue cove or lagoon.

There are no challenging walks on this island the highest point is only 190 metres but there is plenty for a keen walker to discover. The paths are easy to navigate but way marking is sporadic. Our walking notes will ensure you do not take a wrong turn.

Getting About

There is an excellent bus service which reaches all corners of the island, and a bus stop is close to both hotels. We provide the bus timetable before you leave. If you do not wish to wait for a bus, taxis are inexpensive.

Self Guided

We offer a choice of walks of an easy to medium category. Most walks require a bus ride to get you to the start of the walk and back to base at the end. A ferry is required for one walk when you visit the island of Comino.

Walks take you along cliff tops down to the coast exploring the fascinating salt pans, through fertile valleys to explore the ancient hill top villages and their dominating churches.

Guided

Our guide is now a resident of the island having lived most of his life in Yorkshire. He and his wife have walked almost every path on the island and will take you on walks showing you the very best that Gozo has to offer. All guided walks include transport to and from the hotel.
