With the help of donkeys, simple connecting paths were created between the settlements on Corfu. Later, these paths were paved and reinforced, gradually forming a dense network of footpaths between the more than 130 mountain villages and leading to the remote churches, monasteries, and fortresses located at the highest and most spectacular points of the island. This is a fortunate development, as Corfu's diverse natural beauty makes the island a paradise for hikers. In this hiking guide, authors Maria Tsoukis and Akgül Fatourou invite you to discover Corfu from its original side - they take us on a journey to Corfu's roots, its traditions, and stories. With each tour, you can explore different landscape formations, enjoy breathtaking views, and experience wonderful encounters with nature. Additionally, the authors share insights into the island's history.
