A magnificent naturally formed rock structure on the west coast of Paxos at the southern end of the island. Excellent for trekking.

Tripitos is one of my favourite spots on Paxos partly because of its inaccessibility (you can only walk there), partly due to the stunning turquoise waters that surround it and to experience the sensational views over the ocean towards nearby Antipaxos. The contrasting sense of freedom and isolation you feel when you're here is priceless. What makes Tripitos so dramatic is the fact that – as you approach it – the towering limestone rock appears to be joined to the island by an incredibly thin - unpassable - arch. It looks incomprehensibly narrow until you are actually crossing it. Scary but very worthwhile! Tripitos Arch is about 15 minutes walk from Paxos StoneHouse.
