This 55 kilometre walk takes you around the entire island of Gozo by a route that is interesting, safe, varied and very enjoyable. It is not a uniform sign-posted route but a combination of limestone paths, town pavements, minor country roads and some sections across open countryside. The route goes as near to the coast as is practical and safe but must of necessity avoid coastal promontories, quarries or land in private ownership. There are some slightly challenging uphill sections but the route, in the main, is along level paths. The walk can be done by any reasonably fit person and a pair of walking shoes is adequate in all but the worst of weather. The overall walk is divided into 5 sections of about 10 km each. Importantly there is ready access by bus to the starting and finishing point of each section.
There are few places in the world like Gozo where walks of moderate distance can bring you past so many fascinating features of environmental, cultural and landscape interest. This guide includes maps and detailed descriptions of the route and the main features to be encountered.
