Hiking
With the many hours of sunshine all year, and very little rainfall, Greece is the perfect outdoor holiday destination as very little time is spent indoors, even by the locals.
While Greece’s Beaches are the big pull, if you have more energy, you’ll find many lovely hikes too.
The best ones are listed below–particularly in the Pelion and Peloponnese regions of the mainland, and the famous Samaria Gorge in Crete, not to mention trekking and hiking on Mount Parnassos in Central Greece.
You’ll also find some nice treks and hikes around the mountainous villages of the Epirus region of Northern Greece.
