Corfu Trail creator Hilary Whitton Paipeti announces the publication of her new book Walking Over Olives, soon to be available on Amazon. The book celebrates 25 years since the Trail was founded.

In 2001, after many years of exploration and painstaking preparation, the Corfu Trail welcomed its first hikers. Since then, many thousands have followed its course, discovering some of the island’s most breathtaking and varied landscapes - more diverse than those of any other Greek island. Now renowned worldwide, the Corfu Trail has been acclaimed as Europe’s finest long-distance hike.

In this book, Hilary Paipeti - founder of the Trail and author of its official guide - tells the remarkable story of how, against all odds, she created it. Retracing the route through memory and imagination, she guides the reader through its landscapes, weaving in vivid anecdotes and humorous tales from the Trail and from Corfu itself. Along the way, unexpected and compelling themes emerge, offering fresh perspectives that will inspire a new generation of hikers.
