This guidebook presents a selection of 22 day walks, perfect to do from a hotel or rented accommodation. The routes have been chosen to give a taste of the many different landscapes on this marvellous island. It also describes the long-distance Corfu Trail which stretches the length of the island.

The Corfu Trail

Suitable for both novices and experienced walkers, this marvellous 150km (93 mile) trek explores Corfu from toe to top – far south to far north – in 10 memorable day stages.

In this guidebook each stage ends at a village or beach location with meals and accommodation for an overnight stay, be that privately rented rooms, taverna (local restaurant) premises or hotels across the range. Local shops sell picnic supplies, and many cafés and tavernas can provide lunch en route as well. On several walks there are accommodation options at intermediate points, meaning that the route can be shortened. Naturally, rest days are also feasible – maybe at a beach. The island’s bus and taxi network allows walkers to join or leave the route at multiple points, with easy access to Corfu Town.
