The different landscapes of Greece make hiking an enjoyable and refreshing activity. In fact, the past years many trekking clubs have opened all over the country and have set paths for hiking. Some hiking maps are provided underneath.
Hiking is particularly popular in the mainland of Greece, where landscapes vary more and things are more organized. Zagoria, Meteora and Central Peloponnese are the most popular places, while clubs usually organize hiking with other activities, such as archery or rafting.
The difficulty of the hiking paths differs depending on the landscape of each region and its weather. Usually, these paths cross gorges, lakes, valleys, mountainsides and include visits to monasteries or archaeological sites. They are part of agro tourism, the new kind of tourism that is developed the last years.
