Overview

Enjoy a private, exclusive tour with your own local guide. The walk on Trail 2 in Sifnos is one of the island's most iconic experiences. This scenic journey begins in Kastro, the fortified medieval capital of Sifnos. Its maze-like alleys and hidden courtyards still follow their original defensive design. Then follow the ancient “Towards the Miraculous Saint” route, descending towards the sea. The trail passes through fishing villages, quiet beaches, and crystal-clear waters. Midway, the path leads into Faros, a charming harbour village. Step across a rocky islet to the island’s spiritual heart, the Panagia Chrysopigi Monastery. How did the sea itself shape the legend behind its name? The tour concludes beside the monastery’s turquoise waters, a perfect place to rest, reflect, and enjoy a refreshing swim (conditions permitting).

Please note: The availability and accessibility of attractions may vary based on time of day and crowd conditions, ensuring each visit is a unique experience.

Activity itinerary

Kastro

  • 35m
Wander through the former Venetian capital, a 3000 year old settlement. Explore fortified walls, medieval homes, and cliff-edge paths. Roman sarcophagi are used as flower pots and Venetian coats of arms still adorn doorways.

Church of the Seven Martyrs

  • 20m
Pause at this iconic whitewashed church perched dramatically above the sea. Why was it built outside the village walls, and what role did it play in religious processions?

Trail 2

  • 50m
Follow a gentle downhill coastal trail with wide views of the Aegean. Walk between small family vineyards and dry-stone walls that protect terraced olive groves. This ancient trail was once a transport "highway" for sailors and merchants.

Faros

  • 30m
Arrive in this picturesque fishing village, once the island’s main port. Learn how Faros evolved from a working port into one of Sifnos’ most charming seaside communities. The walk continues afterwards past Fasolou Beach, a calm, tree-lined cove known for its shallow waters.

Panagia Chrissopigi

  • 20m
Explore Sifnos’ most important religious site, built on a rocky islet. Observe the striking contrast of its white walls with the turquoise waters that surround it. Hear the legend behind its name and learn why sailors still pray here.

Apokofto beach

  • 25m
The final coastal stretch passes the quiet shoreline of Glyfo Beach, before opening onto Apokofto Beach beside the monastery. Unwind by the water or enjoy an optional swim, weather permitting.
