Hiking

Decided to explore Skopelos’s countryside, leaving behind any motorized means? Excellent idea. The “green and blue” island promises unforgettable hikes. As you walk, you will enjoy nature and discover monuments, villages, chapels, and “kalyvia,” traditional two-storey Skopelian farmhouses. Before setting out, don’t forget to bring all the essentials according to the season—water, hat, sunscreen in summer, maps, and optionally hiking poles, regardless of the weather.

Today, the Municipality of Skopelos, in coorporation with local hikers and professional trail builders, has created a network of 14 hiking routes and three secondary routes, all of which are signposted. These routes are:
