About the book

Wander the UNESCO World Heritage city of Valletta, traverse the dramatic clifftop coastlines of Malta, meander through the quieter lanes and ancient villages of Gozo, and experience the wild circuit of tiny Comino. Suitable for beginner and experienced walkers alike, this comprehensive Cicerone guidebook describes 33 walks across Malta, Gozo, and Comino. Routes range from 3 to 22km (2–14 miles) and can be enjoyed in 2–8 hours, from easy heritage strolls and coastal walks to a challenging exploration of the Victoria Lines, the historic fortified ridge that runs the full length of Malta. Highlights include the Valletta Heritage Trail, the Marfa Ridge, the Mdina and Rabat Heritage Trail, and the full circuit of the island of Comino. Navigate with confidence using 1:25,000 maps included for every walk, alongside downloadable GPX files to support your planning and navigation. Detailed information on planning, facilities, and public transport ensures routes are easily accessible from the key centres of Valletta, Rabat, and Victoria on Gozo. Introductory sections covering geology, history, wildlife, religion, and cultural heritage provide rich context for your explorations across these remarkable Mediterranean islands. Whether you're combining walking with a city break in Valletta or dedicating a week to exploring all three islands on foot, this is the definitive guide to walking on Malta.
