Trekking Paths

The pathways crisscrossing Tinos unfold across 400km of meticulously laid stone or slate, creating routes where upright stones are a rare sight. These paths are steeped in history, tracing their origins back to ancient times. The Vari path, renowned as the most significant to this day, historically linked the Ancient Town with the central towns of Tinos, serving as vital arteries of communication and commerce. Pinpointing the exact age of these pathways proves challenging, as their construction technique has remained unchanged through millennia, a testament to the enduring craftsmanship of the island’s inhabitants.

The initiative “Alternative Forms of Tourism – Promotion of Cultural Interest Itineraries” has played a crucial role in rejuvenating and signposting these trails, focusing on regions of significant cultural interest. This effort not only preserves the historical essence of these ancient routes but also opens up a window to the past for modern explorers, offering a tangible connection to the island’s rich heritage and the timeless landscape that has inspired generations.

Poseidon Temple

The temple of Poseidon on Tinos was revered on par with the sanctuary of Asklepios in Epidaurus, marking it as a crucial site for those seeking divine healing. Devotees implored Poseidon for restoration of their health, engaging in sacred rituals and adhering to treatments prescribed by the temple’s priests. This profound spiritual practice highlighted the temple’s significant role in the ancient healing process.

Tinos served as a preparatory stop for pilgrims en route to Delos, known as the gateway for those on their sacred journey. Before reaching Delos, pilgrims were required to undergo purification in the baths of Poseidon, ensuring they arrived in a state of purity. Present-day visitors to the site can observe remnants of this rich historical tapestry, including portions of the temple’s foundations, the guesthouse, the bath, and a ceremonial platform.

Among the archaeological discoveries are numerous sculptures and decorative elements from the temple, bearing witness to its former magnificence.
