Hi everyone, when we are in Malta next month we want to do the above walk starting from either village and ending at either village the start and finishing points are not important, I know how to get between the two places but I don't have an official walking guide, now obviously being a sensible couple we don't want to just set of walking and end up in any dangerous places as we are safe walkers, so could anyone please direct me to an official source where we could find a proper walk ?, the MTA nearly published one but it never went to press for some reason.

Many Thanks
Sliema2

I've got a book called "Walking in Malta"
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Walking-Malta-Routes-Cicerone-International/dp/1852844221

walk 3 is Marsascala to Birzebbuga, so the walk you want is about the first 75% of that walk

Always glad to help, I have heard that Mark gives guided tours of Gozo on Wednesdays and Fridays and swimming lessons on Mondays and Thursdays, also find the bomb tours of Filfia on Sundays that always go with a bang.

I followed a path from St Thomas' bay along the coast and over the hills towards Marsaxlokk. I only went a couple of miles before turning back but i would recomend decent footwear as some of the paths are very uneven and rocky. Fantastic views but stay away from the edge of the cliffs as they are quite crumbly.
