Tinos Hillside Hike & Village Delights
Tinos Hillside Hike & Village Delights
Begin with a drive from Tinos pier to Exomvourgo Hill, where your hiking route begins. As the third highest mountain on the island, Exomvourgo is home to the ruins of a Venetian castle, where you will learn about its long and significant history. From here, the route descends toward the village of Koumaros, a small and traditional settlement known for its distinctive self-service café, open 24 hours a day without staff.
Continue along a network of verdant trails to reach Volax, a unique village set among large spherical granite rocks whose origin remains a mystery. Here, a short break is made to enjoy Greek coffee, homemade lemonade, and a local sweet. The walk then continues downhill along an old path to Agapi village, one of the island’s oldest settlements, set within a valley of traditional dovecotes and old watermills.
In Agapi, you will stop at a local taverna to sample regional specialties, including local cheese, lountza, caper salad, and handmade meatballs. Following your stop in Agapi village, you rejoin your vehicle for the return drive to the pier.
