Five Hiking Trails in Gozo

EXCITING OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

Spring has landed, which means it is the ideal time to visit Malta if you wish to enjoy the island without its usual summer crowds. The mild weather allows for

various outdoor activities, where you can explore and reconnect with nature away from the hustle and bustle of the island

Quad biking is one of the most exhilarating escapades you can experience on the island due to Malta’s naturalistic landscape, picturesque shorelines, and its arresting topography. Malta also offers off-the-beaten routes and tracks which still gives bikers the opportunity to visit sought-after destinations, hamlets, regions, and villages. An all-terrain vehicle is suitable for both beginners and professionals as some companies also offer guided tours to direct seekers to hidden gems that they might have never heard of. We recommend you a visit to the Coral Lagoon, The Red Tower, and Dingli Cliffs. If you’re thinking about quad biking in Gozo visit Dwejra Bay, Ta’ Cenc Cliffs’, and the Citadel.

ABSEILING

Abseiling is the perfect activity to attempt in the Maltese archipelago as it's encompassed by alluring rocky coastlines and its authentic limestone elements. The abseil technique involves the careful descent down a rock by making use of a rope and harness, thus with the help of guided professionals, this thrill can also be experienced by beginners who want to conquer their fears and/or youngsters who want to step foot into this new adventurous sport. Consequently, this activity gives you the opportunity to look at the Maltese islands through a different lens and an elevated angle. Since one can easily abseil on the Maltese rocks, from Ghar Lapsi all the way to Wied Babu, this kind of sport will introduce you to a whole new kind of an adrenaline rush you have never experienced before.

ZIP-LINING

Zip-lining offers audacious partakers the possibility of standing on the edge of a steep hill, waiting to descend between two points that slope downwards, with the open sea and rocks encasing underneath. This safe activity is perfect for individuals who are in pursuit of an adrenaline-induced event. Famous zip-lining spots include Valletta, Mosta, & Miġra l-Ferħa. There are events happening on a monthly basis where prospective participants can book and undergo this thrilling activity!

SPELUNKING

Malta’s natural wonders makes it the most marvellous spot for cave-explorers due to the vast array of hidden yet accessible caves. Maltese caves incorporate a vast set of caves, from the prehistoric caves such as Ghar Dalam to more contemporary troglodyte caves including L-Ghar u Casa. Spelunking enthusiasts would be able to carefully peruse caves and their past role as a host for hermits and cavemen. Malta is known for its soft limestone and range of subterranean caves, predisposing itself as a must-see attraction for avid explorers around the world. We personally recommend Blue Grotto in Zurrieq, Ghar Hasan in Birzebbuga, Coral Lagoon in Mellieha, Ninu’s Cave in Xaghra,Gozo. Quad Biking
