AEGEAN ISLANDS HIKE
The Cycladic Islands of Tinos and Andros are ideal for a walking holiday: we follow ancient mule tracks through vineyards, orange groves and across herb- scented hillsides to find sleepy hamlets and wonderful, unspoilt beaches. We trek to the cliff-top monastery at Panachrantos, visit the ruined castle at Exobourgo Peak (570m) and explore the Venetian hilltop fortress of Paliokastro.
ITINERARY
Day 1 Fly to Athens and travel to Rafina. Days 2/4 Tinos Hike along old mule tracks to remote villages and admire views over the Aegean Coast. Climb to the rocky summit of Exobourgo Peak.

Descend through paths lined with fig trees and freshwater springs to the town of Korthi for a well- earned dip in the Aegean Sea.
