Where can I go on a walking holiday in Malta?

We're delighted to offer holidaymakers a wide range of hiking holidays in Malta, giving you the chance to visit popular tourist hotspots as well as hidden gems. Below are just a few of the incredible places you can visit:

Explore the Maltese islands

A visit to two unspoiled Mediterranean islands - Malta and Gozo - promises travellers beautiful beaches and dramatic coastlines to explore while taking in the awe-inspiring architecture found in the traditional towns and villages, especially Valletta, Malta's capital city. Splitting your time between the two means you can get a sense of what these unique islands have to offer on your walking holiday

Valletta

Discover the fascinating and richly historic UNESCO World Heritage site of Valletta, Malta's small but bustling capital city.

Spend afternoons wandering its ancient city walls and narrow streets as you take in the extraordinary blend of medieval and baroque architecture. You will also be spoilt by plenty of walking trails allowing you to take in dramatic sea views over azure Mediterranean waters.

Gozo

The isle of Gozo offers plenty of walking routes along stunning coastline paths and through colourful fishing villages steeped in Maltese tradition.

Gozo's tranquil atmosphere and laid-back pace mean you'll be able to enjoy your days taking leisurely strolls through the cobbled streets of historical towns and villages or wandering through countryside bursting with flora and fauna.

The island also boasts plentiful white sandy beaches with secluded pools and coves and rugged cliffside trails where walkers can take in views of the Fungus Rock, a natural stone outcrop in the centre of Dwejra Bay.
