Marfa Ridge · Mellieħa, Malta

Pet sitters in Marfa Ridge

The Marfa Ridge is the high cliff-top spine running from Mellieħa down to the Ċirkewwa ferry. It is one of the most spectacular walks in Malta, with sea views on both sides and significantly cooler evening breezes than the bay below. Sitters use the ridge for the daily long walk during the warm months.

Frequently asked

Questions from Marfa Ridge owners

Is the Marfa Ridge safe for off-lead dogs?
For well-trained dogs, yes, on the inland sections. Keep dogs on lead near the cliff edges; the drops in places are significant.
How do sitters get to the ridge?
Most sitters drive up from the village or the bay; the ridge access points are 5-10 minutes away. Some park at the Red Tower and walk both directions from there.
Is the ridge usable in winter?
Yes, and especially good in winter. The ridge is exposed, so windy days can be tough, but the cooler walking weather is ideal for longer outings.
What does Petme cover in Marfa Ridge?
Verified pet sitters offering boarding, in-home sitting, drop-in visits and dog walks across Marfa Ridge. Every booking includes €20,000 vet protection at no extra cost.

No. Petme charges 0% to pet owners. The rate on the sitter's profile is exactly what you pay at checkout.
