Description
For the nature & outdoor activities loving visitors of Mykonos, as well as the motivated, exercise-driven guests, we offer a circular 6,2km guided hiking tour at the unspoiled northern part of the island. The intriguing part of this tour is that we walk through donkey paths, having therefore the chance to witness the authentic landscapes of the island.
Your pet-friendly and family-friendly walking tour is designed with the part-time hikers in mind, for whom the priority lies in both enjoying the hike, as well as the breath-taking views at a relaxed pace, the photo shooting, the swimming and the storytelling.
Whilst the focus is on walking and discovering the hidden gems of Mykonos, there is ample time to swim or sunbathe at Merchia beach, have a small picnic with homemade lemonade and traditional dessert and appreciate the local knowledge shared by the walking guides.
At the end of the hike you can even soak up the ambience and hospitality at the historic vineyard Mykonos Vioma

Off the Beaten Path Hike
We thoroughly enjoyed our Off the Beaten Path hike with Dimitris of Yummy Pedals on the island of Mykonos. We followed donkey trails and countryside footpaths, stopping at a small church in the middle of a field. Dimitris explained that these churches, scattered outside of town, are family chapels used for special celebrations and occasions.
Along the way, we learned how agriculture on the island has evolved over the years, including a growing embrace of dry-climate farming and organic vineyards—one of which, Vioma, is owned by Dimitris and his family. We then continued to a peaceful beach, where we cooled our feet in the water while enjoying homemade lemonade and a local pastry specialty.
The pace of the hike was perfect, and on our return to Vioma, we stopped to treat a donkey and horse to snacks. It was a morning well spent, and I would highly recommend this excursion to anyone who wants to enjoy a bit of hiking while learning more about the island.
Operator response
On behalf of Dimitri, thank you so much for your detailed review, which is a great boost for our business and our efforts to show the true side of Mykonos, as we the locals experience it.

A rewarding experience when visiting Mykonos
Great hike with many interesting aspects about the land, people, and culture.
The path led away from the roads to a secluded beach with great swimming opportunities.
Only to be recommended.

Perfect Day of Hiking and a Beach Picnic
We had such a wonderful experience on the hiking tour and beach picnic! 🌿🏝️ The hike was the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation, with beautiful views all along the way. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt comfortable throughout. The highlight was definitely ending the hike with a cozy picnic right on the beach — the food was fresh and delicious, and the setting couldn’t have been more peaceful. It felt like the perfect way to soak in the natural beauty of the area. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a mix of activity and relaxation. Truly a memorable day!

A blast of a day with Demetris
A half day of hiking with Demetris was wonderful. He was so insightful and led the way through the island. The beach was beautiful and the animals along the way were friendly and inviting. Highly recommend.

An amazing hike with an amazing guide!
We arrived on Mykonos on a cruise ship and we booked this tour directly with Yummy Pedals, instead of joining an expensive and crowded shore excursion organized sold in the ship.
We were rewarded with the best day of our trip! The 4 miles hike was not difficult with stops at some points of interest, where our guide gave us insights about the life on Mykonos. Halfway we stopped at an almost empty beach where we had time to cool off in the crystal clear sea. What a day!

A highly recommended tour!
This hiking tour was the highlight of our trip to Greece! Dimitra is a wonderful and very knowledgeable guide and took us to an almost empty hidden beach following paths through the Mykonian countryside. On the way she shared stories and her passion for her island.
If you travel to Mykonos don't miss this tour!

YO! Definetly Recommend!
This was the best part of our 5 day trip to Mykonos. We had a private "AEGAN TASTES" hiking tour. We walked a beautifully planned hike with Dimitris - and he knows so much about the history and landscape, he gave us a lot of information on it all including the culture - which we loved. At the end of the hike we ended up at a beautiful crystal clear water beach which had no crowd there at all so it felt completely private. Its a hidden area so its nice. Then he served us amazing homemade, farm to table food, greek salad, cheeses, sundried tomatoes, honey, yogurt, vine leaves with rice, and much more, the most popular is the famous secret recipe LEMONADE which is perfect after the hike and swim. He also takes photos throughout the whole hike, and swim. Underwater photos are great. Then after the hike he takes us back to the farm in his car, and we added an hour of E-bike tour. We loved that as well, definetly recommend it. The trail is amazing, e-bikes are easy to ride. So much FUN! Great exercise. I love that you can customize your experience to what you want to do. Reach out t o them and you will be glad that you dove deep into the culture of local Mykonianas, makes the trip worthy!
