Favorite Walks Around Corfu Town

[ssherie_]

I might end up going to Corfu on a future trip to Greece, and Corfu Town looks like the kind of place that would be great to explore on foot.

One of my favorite things to do when visiting somewhere new is simply walk around and see what I come across. I love to explore!

So I’m curious, what are some of your favorite walks around Corfu Town? Are there particular streets, routes, or areas that you especially enjoyed wandering through? I’d love to hear about any spots that make for a really nice walk.

Corfu Town is perfect for wandering, especially if you enjoy discovering places without a strict plan. One of my favorite walks starts near the Old Fortress and follows along the Liston promenade. From there, I like to drift into the narrow streets of the old town, just letting myself get a little lost. The mix of Venetian architecture, small shops, and quiet alleys makes it really enjoyable.

I also loved walking from Spianada Square toward Campiello. That area feels a bit more tucked away and residential, with hidden corners and little stairways that suddenly open up into small squares.

Another great route is along the waterfront near the New Fortress, especially in the early evening. The light over the water is beautiful, and it feels a bit calmer than the center.

Honestly, the best part is not over-planning. Corfu Town rewards curiosity, and some of the nicest moments come from simply turning down a random street.
