Hiking

 

In the central and northern part of the island, the trails cross picturesque villages and rocky landscapes of geological interest, often reaching wetlands with dense vegetation. The largest part of northern Chios is a protected NATURA 2000 area. The signs of the island’s medieval past are ubiquitous, so you can combine nature observation with a visit to byzantine monasteries and chapels that you will definitely discover on your hike.
