Malta walking / Malta, Gozo & Comino Cicerone | 9781852848224

This guidebook describes 33 walks on Malta and its neighbouring islands of Gozo and Comino. Walks generally range from 3 to 17km, and include Valetta, heritage trails, coastal walks and explorations inland, including the 30km 'Victoria Lines' route between Mgarr and Bahar ic-Caghaq. Malta offers year-round walking. Seasons: Spring is best, high summer perhaps too hot for strenuous walking: winter walking is fine, but it can be rainy and even a little cold. Centres: Malta is about the same size as the Isle of Wight, so anywhere will make a fine base for walking. Difficulty: Half and full-day walks, usually easy, but with some longer stretches along the clifftops. Must See: Old Valetta (a World Heritage Site); excellent walking on clifftop coastlines away from the towns; the historic buildings and landmarks of the many peoples who have come to Malta; the circuit of Comino.
