The island offers a plethora of hiking trails, best explored outside of the hottest summer months when the sun is ablaze. Enthusiasts may thoroughly enjoy hiking up the “Ftera” terrain, with 20 different climbing routes to choose from.
Do & See
There is plenty to do and see in and around the island. Those who dare venture out of the island's attractive, well-groomed Chora will be duly rewarded with nature trails, secluded coves and beaches, remains of ancient structures, and a rare sense of discovery in virgin lands. Heading even further out, smaller islands very close to Astypalaia are perfectly reachable by boat (tours are offered throughout, especially during high season).
