There are very beautiful and well-maintained hiking trails around Herzo Airport. At the airport itself, there's a fantastic pizzeria – a family-run business – with super friendly staff, absolutely amazing pizza, and the other food is also excellent. When the weather's nice, there's a great terrace right next to the runway. It's a MUST-visit.

Great resting place (for us almost at the end of the hike) with a really great view. There is also a large parking lot, where you can easily park your car and start the hike from there
