Gozo is a small island whose landscape along the coast is uniquely diverse and full of natural beauty. The walk around the coast is approximately 55km long and is divided into daily sections of about 10-15km. For the more adventurous natures, the daily sections can be extended. Alternatively, you can complete only a short section of the walk and explore a more limited area. The terrain is a mix of dirt tracks, footpaths, urban footpaths and a few sections without a clearly defined route. Some sections of the coastal route are more challenging to hike, while others are easy walks. Overall, the Gozo Coastal Walk is a moderately challenging hike along the beautiful coastline. The island has uneven terrain, so be prepared for climbs and descents up hills.
