Itinerary description
Take Care! See remark of Quron from 10 sep 2022 (road has changed).
More information about the magnificent Corfu Trail is available at http://www.thecorfutrail.com/ where you can get your registration (for support) and a complete description of the trail.
The official trail is 10 days, but we walked it in 8 days because it was not always evidence to find an overnight location. Some days we had also to step away from the trail to find sleeping facilities.
The waypoints named "Corfu Trail Dx Exit" are the places where we left the trail to get to the apartments/studios (These locations are named "Dx ").
The track provided is almost the official trail. Contact me if you want a track with the official trail only, I am working on it.

Very good! Bravo Paul!
I've walked most of the island now and this is actually NOT A TRAIL but following mainly the island's paved roads. There are small (by comparison) portions of actual trail connected by large segments of paved road. Maybe in the winter it could be enjoyable, but in the summer there is quite heavy traffic of tourist busses, cars, motorbikes etc. Nobody has to actually believe me, just compare the "Corfu trail" map with a map of the roads of the island.
Not saying it's not enjoyable but it's not a trail.
@irabrown you probably did not follow the 'trail' ;-)

heel erg bedankt paul voor de info die u ons gestuurd heeft
wij waarderen dit enorm , de trail die u gemaakt hebt is inderdaad al even geleden
we gaan kijken welke informatie nuttig is voor ons voor misschien de mei vakantie of anders later
nogmaals bedankt
Hallo Paul, ook wij gaan vanaf maandag de corfutrail lopen . Althans, we starten in paramonas om wat tijd te sparen. Heb je toevallig een gpx bestand van de route? En zou je dat toe willen sturen?
Zou fijn zijn.
Groeten Joris Snijders
Dag Joris,
Je kan het gpx bestand downloaden vanaf WikiLoc. Ik heb ook een gpx zonder onze omwegen die ik je kan bezorgen maar daar heb ik wel contactgegevens voor nodig.
Merk op dat onze trail ondertussen bijna 10 jaar oud (dus misschien hier en daar gewijzigd) is maar het was absoluut de moeite. Veel plezier,
Paul.
Hallo Paul
Dank je wel alvast. Ondanks 10 jr oud zou het toch fijn zijn
Mijn e-mail adres: jorissnaa@gmail.com
Wij gaan er zeker van genieten
Groet Joris
Hello Paul!
I'm planning to hike the Corfu Trail but I'm having a hard time to find an official gps track and a guide. Do you have some recommendations? Thank you very much, Maddalena
Dear Maddalena,
You can download my track in gpx format from WikiLoc. Or I can send you the official trail in gpx format without my walkarounds that I did for lodging purposes. In the latter case I need your contact data.
Paul.
Hello Paul, thanks for the reply! The official one would be great, so I can check both of them :) my email is
maddalena (dot) sommadossi

gmail (dot) com
(sorry, it doesn't work if I write the address all in one)
Thank you very much
Hello Paul
I have been following your track on the Corfu Trail for the past week. Most of it fit fine, but one place your track was completely wrong. It is your track down to Palea Peritheia that starts in the wrong place approx. 640 meters from "Huntes Kiosk", which is the correct place to start.
You can se the right track here:
Thanks for your help.
Jesper Norup
Hello Jesper,
Thank you for your remark, I will mention it in my overview.
As we walked the Corfu Trail in 2013 the road might have changed but my track is what we did at that moment so I can not change it.
Best regards,
Paul.
Hello Paul, can you please send me the OFFICIAL trail in gpx format (not the one that you did) ? Thank you so much.
Mike
Please send to: corfutrail.wallace108 at spamgourmet dot com.
Thank you
Hello Paul,
may I also ask for the official Trail gpx ?
Would be great.
We will start next week ! :-)
please send it to

All the best to you and keep hiking.

Hallo Eva, your e-mail address is not clear to me but probably this link works: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmVPPY1AOZCigYNIT1bSFrBpylbNpw .
Thank you so much....we start tomorrow
Enjoy!!
Hi Paul, ik zou ook graag de officiële gpx bestand willen hebben, maar de one drive link werkt niet voor mij (bestand verplaatst of geen toestemming). Kun je me deze anders sturen op caroliennieuwenhuis@?
Dag Carolien, Je e-mail-adres is niet volledig maar ik heb het terug ter beschikking gesteld op https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmVPPY1AOZCilI5eDzuvz8gb2oSxtQ?e=KHorzP .
Succes en geniet er van! Groet, Paul.
