Simply a wonderful climb
The number of cyclists who have climbed mt. Taygetus has fallen in love with this route. It is a climb that has everything, from steep parts in the beginning and false flat segments on its plateu, to quiet roads under the shade and running waters. The views of the switchbacks we leave behind and the one from Kalamata bay, as we descend, will make our day marvelous!

Why everything is in English?
Πολλά από τα μέλη μας προέρχονται από το εξωτερικό και για λόγους ευγένειας, τιμώντας την Ελληνική Φιλοξενία, αποφασίσαμε να έχουμε σαν επίσημη γλώσσα τα αγγλικά.
Είμαστε όλοι μια παρέα, ας μην αφήσουμε τη γλώσσα να είναι εμπόδιο.
Ευχαριστούμε για την κατανόηση.
