They have easy, moderate and challenging rides that traverse the same idyllic routes pleasure-seekers have been frequenting since the days of Zeus. Travel by bicycle is a win-win-win way to discover Greece: (a) it’s fun and healthy for you, (b) it’s low impact and earth friendly, and (c) slow motion touring encourages intimate exchanges with local Greeks which help preserve their centuries-old traditions for years to come.
You’ll be overwhelmed and fortified by the treasures en route: archaic ruins memorializing the birthplace of Western Civilization, Byzantine churches still in use, natural thermal healing waters where Hippocrates is said to have bathed, 15,000 kilometers of some of the cleanest and bluest coastline in the Mediterranean, 1,400 alluring islands, formidable mountains including the mighty Mt. Olympus, flourishing wineries, and delicious fresh food served in traditional tavernas. Greece will touch your heart with its poignant places, such as the remarkable hollow tree in the Peleponnese, so huge that you can walk inside it and find a chapel complete with altar and eight chairs in a circle.
CycleGreece loves it here, and they’re confident that at the end of your bike trip in Greece you, too, will become a certified Grecophile yearning to return again and again to cycle this stunning, memorable land.
