Trekking in Samos



A good trekking destination, Samos has a variable terrain with secluded beaches, towering mountains, pine forests, fertile plains and vineyards. Therefore, there are treks available for all levels. The largest mountain, the Ampelos massif at 1.100 m and the highest peak at the Kerkis range at 1.400 m have some challenging hikes. You can also walk peacefully along the coastal path of Samos and see some deserted beaches, sparkling blue coves and beautiful flowers on the way.
