Tinos Domestic Tour: Circular Hiking Adventure through 9 Traditional Villages
Activity Description
Embark on one of the most authentic long-distance hiking experiences in Tinos, specially designed for active hikers and culture enthusiasts. This circular hiking tour takes you through 9 picturesque villages of the Tinos hinterland, showcasing traditional Cycladic architecture, dovecotes, medieval ruins, mountain trails, and breathtaking landscapes.
The trail begins in Komi, one of the largest and most agriculturally vibrant villages on the island. We head toward Perastra, a serene green settlement built on a river, featuring arched bridges and old dovecotes.
Our hike continues uphill toward Krokos, passing historic watermills, traditional pigeon houses, and the ruins of the medieval village of Lazarus, offering a glimpse into the island’s past.
We then reach the upper villages of Skalados and Koumaros, located at the foot of Mount Exomvourgos, the third-highest peak of Tinos, crowned with the Venetian Castle, a place of strategic and historical significance.
From there, the route becomes downhill, passing through Xynara, Kampos, Tarambados—famous for its Valley of the Dovecotes—and Smardakito, before circling back to Komi. After the hike, participants can enjoy a traditional meal in Komi’s village square, where local taverns operate during the summer months.
