Top Mykonos Hiking Tours

Explore Mykonos on foot during this guided hiking tour. Choose from the ambitious 6-mile (10-km) option, suitable for advanced hikers, or the more manageable 3-mile (5-km) walk. Each option can be upgraded with a traditional Greek lunch at the Mykonian Spiti. Hotel pickup and drop-off included.

Take a break from the beach crowds and discover corners of Mykonos that most tourists never see with this scenic hike. Set off with your hiking guide along a circular 4-mile (6.2-km) route that follows an old donkey trail through the countryside and along the coast. Take in sweeping views, stop to swim at Merchia beach, and learn about the island’s history and landscape from your guide during this 3-hour 10-minute tour.

Start your day with a convenient transfer service from your hotel. Your hike starts at Kinidaros, a scenic village nestled amid marble quarries. As you hike all the way down to the river, the views of the nearby mountains as they blend with the deep blue of the Aegean are breathtaking! As soon as you reach the riverbanks, the landscape changes completely. The air is cooler, shady spots abound, and vegetation is rioting next to abandoned watermills, lagoons, and small waterfalls, while crabs and water turtles make their way at the water’s edge next to oleander bushes and plane trees. The trail ends in Eggares, an old, quiet farming village, where you’ll have the chance to visit one of Naxos’s oldest remaining olive mills, dating back to at least the late 1800s when it pressed locally-grown olives for the village community. At Eggares, we’ll share a great, leisurely meal at one of the village’s best traditional tavernas. Then our transport will take you back to your accommodations!
