Seasons

Spring is best, high summer perhaps too hot for strenuous walking. Winter walking is fine, but it can be rainy and (even!) a little cold.

Centres

It's not a big island (similar to the Isle of Wight) so anywhere will be fine, it depends more on the sort of evenings you want.

Difficulty

Half- and full-day walks, usually easy, but with some longer stretches along the clifftops.

Must See

Old Valetta (a World Heritage Site); excellent walking on cliff coastlines out of the towns; historic buildings of the many peoples who have come to Malta.
