Home | Info | Suggestions | Skopelos | Seasons | Guide Book | Gallery | Links | Latest News About Me - Heather Parsons It all began in 1986 when I was sent here to work 'just for one summer'. I was delighted by the "old fashioned", natural beauty of the island and the traditional ways of doing things . It reminded me of my childhood in Kent. One is still able to get right off the beaten track to peaceful, green country-side, magnificent views and nothing to hear but the buzzing of insects, the birds singing and the tinkling of goats' bells. It's great for bird/butterfly watchers, botanists, in fact anyone who appreciates what nature has to offer. In 1987 I returned here to work (just for one more summer!) and in 1988 I bought a cottage and settled. In 1990 the Sotos Walking Guide copyright was given to me. I annually updated and added to it. In April 2001 the guide was given a facelift and a new name: Skopelos Trails, which incorporates the Sotos guide and includes history, nature notes and "spotters'' lists. From May to October I guide walking tours and hikes. Apart from teaching English, winters are spent remarking the trails and attempting to maintain them. 
Welcome to my Skopelos Walks website. I hope that you enjoy browsing through the site and that you will join me on one of my walking tours of this beautiful island set in the Northern Sporades. Skopelos Walks offers walks to suit everyone; gentle rambles around Skopelos town and its surroundings, to full day hikes in the countryside. My suggestions can be found on the Suggestions page. I can also "Tailor" a specific walk or hike according to individual needs. Please e-mail me by clicking the button to the left. 
Check out the Seasons page for more detail of the best time to visit according to your requirements. If you need help booking accommodation on Skopelos, the Skopelos Holidays site will be of help.I look forward to meeting you soon!
