I have taken walks with Hugo on Symi. One I remember more than any other is the walk from Yialo to Agia Marina. And though there's a comment by Adriana about walks around Symi not being much like those in Copenhagen,
the Danes did appear to be more adept at traversing the narrow trails better than the Americanakia. Anyway, I did meet relatives along the way and I was rewarded, there was a boat along with crew which fed me and brought me back home. The climb down the steep cliff from Agia Marina to the shore is a bit treacherous.

| Symiakos - could you mean the walk to St Vasilis? It is indeed a bit of a scramble down the rock pile to the shore but the swim at the end makes it all worthwhile. Plus of course the Triton BBQ to follow. |

New to the forum. Visited Symi for the first time last Sept. and will be returning in June. How do you contact Hugo to find out about his planned walks?
Thanks |

| Welcome to the site, Beverly. Symi Visitor office will provide any necessary information when you arrive. Take suitable footwear, water and hat, especially in June. |

Beverly,
Hugo's scheduled walks are in cooperation with Triton. The boat are used for the return journey from Ag. Emilianos or Ag. Vassilios. They also serve one of the best lunches you will have on the island.
Hugo’s walks are advertised on the board where Triton docks in Yalos.
Poseidon, the other boat that does round the island trips, has a similar arrangement with another guide (Jytte) and they do different walks. Days and routes are advertised on Poseidon’s board.
Remember a good pair of shoes as the paths are rough at places.

| I am amazed at the resourcefulness of this wonderful chat page. I never knew you could arrange walks from the Poseiden. We are creatures of habit but as we are on Symi for 3 weeks this year we shall surely try a few different walks. |

Lost that weight for Portugal, Sorella?
Go to Symi in August & do the walks, you'll be so slim that Wee J will have seen more meat on a butchers pencil... |
If this message causes confusion, my work here is done. |
