Lesvos is an extremely large island, the third largest in Greece, and considerably under-populated. Cloaked with forests of chestnut and oak, the hills and mountains are riddled with little known ancient trails and cobbled donkey paths, many of which form the walks. This guidebook features these walks.
Cloaked with forests of chestnut and oak, the hills and mountains are riddled with little known ancient trails and cobbled donkey paths, many of which form the walks featured in this new guidebook. With the publication of "Landscapes of Lesvos", the island is set to become an exciting new walking destination in the Mediterranean. Greece has been a major tourist destination for many years, but somehow Lesvos found itself in the slow stream of development. Back in the mid 1980s, one could understand how this came about. Lesvos is an extremely large island, the third largest in Greece, and considerably under-populated. The infrastructure, especially the road system, was especially poor, and journeys by road took ages. How that has changed? Refreshingly free of high-rise hotels and beach-orientated tourism, Lesvos is seizing an opportunity to rediscover itself through ecotourism in its totally unspoilt countryside. Fascinating sites, often unprotected, allow you to do your own interpretation.
