Description

Hiking – on the Akramitis

Experience a hike that takes you right into the heart of the wild, untouched nature of Rhodes' west coast. From the traditional village of Monolithos, you'll ascend with your certified hiking guide through fragrant pine and cypress groves, always accompanied by breathtaking views over Apollakia Bay. The higher you climb, the more impressive the landscape becomes: rocky paths, open meadows full of herbs, and the tranquility of a nature that is part of the Natura 2000 network.

At the small chapel of Agios Ioannis, you can enjoy a typical Greek refreshment before the final ascent begins. The short rocky section before the summit adds an extra thrill – and once you reach the top, a panorama unfolds that rewards every step: 360-degree views over all of Rhodes, Mount Attaviros, the neighboring islands, and on clear days even as far as Karpathos and the Turkish coast.

The descent leads through a shady forest of tall pines – ideal even on warmer days. Along the way, you'll learn fascinating details about the nature, geology, and history of this special region. Your guide will also capture the most beautiful moments with photos, which you'll receive later.

This approximately 9-kilometer hike is well-suited for sure-footed hikers and promises pure holiday enjoyment for anyone seeking a combination of tranquility, stunning views, and adventure. Secure your spot directly with your tour guide – and experience Rhodes at its most pristine and beautiful.
