Every week Art and Walk guides you through a forest path to the Agia Kyriaki church overlooking the Aegean sea. The walk starts in Pigadia at the taxi-station where we take the stairs up to a beautiful viewpoint of Pigadia. Along the way you can spot an ancient temple, see old stavlos (old Greek stables), smell the scent of pine trees and local herbs of Karpathos, have a peek inside the Agia Kyriaki church and enjoy gorgeous views of the nearby villages and the sea.

Cần Quan Tâm
Start your day the Karpathian way: early, fresh, and full of light. Meet your guide at 8:30am at the Alpha Bank (old taxi station) in Pigadia, and step out before the summer heat settles in. Within minutes, the town slips behind you and the path begins to climb—past old stavlos and silvery olive fields, with the Aegean glittering beside you. As you gain height, the view opens wider and wider, revealing Pigadia from above and the southern villages scattered along the coastline like small white brushstrokes. Your destination is the peaceful Agia Kyriaki chapel, usually open for a visit. It’s a perfect spot to pause in the shade, take in the scenery, and enjoy a quiet moment away from the bustle. From here, the walk continues through a pine forest where the air turns cooler and resin-scented. Between the trees, you’ll catch repeated “wow” views of the eastern coast—blue water, rugged hills, and Pigadia unfolding below. By late morning you’ll be back in town at around 11:30am, with salty air in your lungs, photos on your phone, and that satisfying post-walk glow. What to expect: Duration: ~3.5 hours (8:30–11:30) Distance: 7 km Elevation gain: +330 m

5.00Beautiful walk with a driven and experienced guide. Renate showed us several things and told us about it on the way to the Agia Kyriaki church. The walking route is both in the sun and in the shade and there is almost always a breeze. The walk is easy to do and there are regular stops to catch your breath, drink and to keep the group together. You can set your own pace and Renate emphasizes that in the beginning. It is an excursion with a relatively small group, which I found pleasant. If you like hiking and want to know more about the area and Agia Kyriaki, then I definitely recommend this excursion!

5.00We had a lovely walk with beautiful views. Very special was the energetic Guide Renate and the fun with which she told about the region and the church. The story about Maria Kyriaki will stay with me forever. Go for what you want!

5.00A lovely ride that felt in the legs. Amazing views and very nice and knowledgeable Guide. A big climb at the beginning of the tour, but after a little rest it was fine to continue and the road leveled off. The descent felt much shorter and we followed a mountain bike trail. Not difficult, but requires concentration. Highly recommended!
Amazing walk with an amazing guide!

5.00I have had the pleasure of taking three guided walks with Renate from Art & Walk, and each walk exceeded my expectations. Renate's guidance led us through beautiful natural landscapes while providing a wealth of information about the local flora, fauna and inhabitants of the island. Her passion for the environment and community is reflected in her compelling stories. I highly recommend Art & Walk! Advice: shoes with a good profile.
Inspiring hike

5.00Tour organized by “Art and walk”. Guiden Thom who has lived at Karpathos for 11 years, has a lot of knowledge to share. This is a "near mountain tour" - it made it so that I could fine use the mountain alone after such a guided tour
