Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos, Rhodes
Activity Description
Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos is a guided day tour to one of the most impressive gems of Rhodes, the Acropolis of Lindos!
The hiking tour starts in the area of Vlicha, a beach located close to Lindos, on the East coast of Rhodes. As we set off on this trail, we leave behind the buzz of the busy main road and head towards the west on a dirt track. Very soon we find ourselves hiking in the shade of old pine trees. The greenery here is a pleasant surprise when you think of how rocky and barren the land around Lindos is, as seen from the road. Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos takes us past imposing limestone mountainsides and on the way we visit an impressive cave. It is here in the area of the cave that we can see how the people of Lindos once provided for themselves agriculturally.
Hiking Lindos is a favorite hiking tour of ours as it is an unusual way of visiting such an important historical archaeological site. You will never forget your first glimpse of it from on high, surrounded by the magnificent colors of the Mediterranean Sea. The colors are even more breathtaking when we look down onto “Navarone Bay” where we look in wonderment at the blues and greens of the water there. Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos has so much more to offer and so we head down to get a real taste of this famous tourist attraction. Once in Lindos, you have time to explore the narrow lanes up close and visit the archaeological site if you wish. On the way back we take a different route, allowing us to admire Lindos from yet another angle. A visit to an intriguing little church, nestled among the rocks is also part of our return journey. Here we can admire another popular beach on the island, Vlicha, and views all along the coast towards the north of the island.
For anyone who likes to be different and wants a unique way to visit this amazing monument – this is for you! You get to enjoy the attraction much like any other tourist but you also get to experience so much more! We are sure that Hiking Tour Exploring Lindos will be an unforgettable day for you!
