Malta Tourism puts island on the map: Following dedicated trails

In 2018 and 2019, the Malta Tourism Authority released a host of themed maps that lead travelers across the island in pursuit of gastronomy, diving, adventure, and films.

The latest addition to the Malta Tourism Authority’s series of maps include the Main Attraction Trail which has been created to highlight the Mediterranean island’s amazing sightseeing experiences. From the natural wonders the Blue Grotto, the ancient mysteries of the Ggantija Temples, and the architectural marvels of St. John’s Co-Cathedral, the idyllic island is abundant in both urban attractions and a magnificent landscape characterized by rugged coastlines, lagoons, and picturesque bays.

The Malta Tourism Authority has also released the Pilgrimage Trail: a map that showcases the most beautiful churches and religious spots across the archipelago. With more than 360 churches and chapels scattered across Malta and Gozo, the religious sites highlighted in the map form an integral part of the country’s history, landscape, and skyline. They are at the heart of Maltese social and cultural life.

The tourism authority is soon to launch a booklet that will feature all maps in the series.
