Hike the less known west Rhodes. From Kritinia village to a secluded beach.

Overview

Meet your personal guide at your hotel to pick you up by a comfy air-conditioned vehicle early in the morning (at around 8am). This PRIVATE adventure begins outside Kritinia village, one of the most unspoiled villages in Rhodes. Walk through rich pinewoods until the islands of Alimia and Chalki show up in the horizon, the perfect set up to have a small break, drink some water and enjoy a local snack for extra energy. Do not forget to capture the view! After about two hours of hiking, you reach the secluded pebble beach named “Glyfada” with the turquoise water, where you have the choice to swim. Glyfada beach is surrounded by a unique physical scenery with many pine trees that reflect on the water and make it look like green. It is ideal for those who want to avoid the crowds and enjoy the sun peacefully in an unspoiled environment. Mr. Savvas offers some very good food at his traditional tavern using vegetables that cultivates himself next to the tavern.  After a farm to table local lunch by the sea, this exclusive hiking trip comes to end and you are back to the hotel at around 4pm.
