Overview

The hiking tour starts in the area of Vlicha, a beach located close to Lindos, on the East coast of Rhodes. As you set off on this trail, you leave behind the buzz of the busy main road and head towards the west on a dirt track. Very soon you find yourself hiking in the shade of old pine trees.

The greenery here is a pleasant surprise when you think of how rocky and barren the land around Lindos is, as seen from the road. 

Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos takes you past imposing limestone mountain sides and on the way you visit an impressive cave. It is here in the area of the cave that you can see how the people of Lindos once provided for themselves agriculturally.

Hiking Lindos is a unique hiking tour since it's an unusual way of visiting such an important historical site. You will never forget your first glimpse of the Acropolis of Lindos from on high, surrounded by the magnificent colours of the Mediterranean Sea.

The colours are even more breathtaking when you look down onto “Navarone Bay” where you look in wonderment at the blues and greens of the water there.

Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos obviously has so much more to offer and so you'll head down to get a real taste of this famous tourist attraction. Once in Lindos you have time to explore the narrow lanes from up close and visit the archaeological site if you wish. On the way back you will take a different route, allowing you to admire Lindos from yet another angle.

A visit to an intriguing little church, nestled among the rocks is also part of your return journey. Here you can admire another popular beach on the island, Vlicha, and views all along the coast towards the north of the island.

For anyone who likes to be different and wants a unique way to visit this amazing area – this is for you! You get to enjoy the attraction much like any other tourist but you also get to experience so much more! Rest assured that Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos will be an unforgettable day for you!
