The second edition of the hiking and touring map of Naxos has been completely redesigned, and is enriched with new and updated information collected exclusively in the field, and from across the entire island.
It is the only map of Naxos which depicts all the hiking trails of the island (totalling 180km!) with accurate point-to-point distances. The 13 signposted hiking routes on Naxos are represented with colour shading and their official numbering. Although the signposting is problematic and poorly maintained, with this hiking map in hand you will be able to follow the routes without getting lost, as all the trails and points of interest are shown on the map with topographic precision and clarity.
On the back side of the map you will find helpful information for each of the signposted hiking routes including elevation profiles, route distance, hiking time, total ascent and descent.
Moreover, the reverse side features an illustrated mini travel guide, with information on the island’s myths and history, geography and natural environment, sights and major attractions, as well as detailed plan of the town of Naxos, at a scale of 1:3.500.
A note on the signposted trails: The network of 13 waymarked hiking routes, a project funded by the Region of South Aegean, has sadly been left without any maintenance, resulting in only a scarce few metal signs surviving, usually nailed on trees, some signposts at the trailheads, most fallen to the ground, crucial junctions without any waymarking, and obstructing vegetation which has not been cleared.
