Descrizione Ιtinerary

Biking the Backroads of Greece: From Ancient Olives to Venetian Castles

This club ride takes you around the Corinthian Gulf, visiting two iconic cities: Galaxidi and Nafpaktos. Central Greece, a significant yet often overlooked part of the country, is rarely the first choice for biking adventures or vacations. On this trip, we aim to showcase some of the region’s most beautiful parts, sharing our love and admiration for it.

 

On the first day, you’ll be shuttled to Zemeno, just a few kilometers outside Arachova, where your bikes will await you. The first 6 kilometers have a gentle grade, helping your legs to warm up as you pass through Arachova and begin descending to Delphi. You’ll weave through ancient olive trees on your way to Itea, then follow the coastal road to Galaxidi. Galaxidi is renowned for its rich maritime history, especially in shipbuilding and seafaring during the 19th century. Its charming streets are lined with traditional stone houses, reflecting its historical legacy.

On the second day be prepared for one of the most beautiful cycling routes you’ve ever experienced. The day starts with an optional climb to the mainland. As you ride through the morning breeze, you’ll soon see the picturesque Mornos lake, surrounded by a stunning forest. It’s this forest you’ll traverse today. After crossing a dam and conquering the final climb, you’ll reach the castles of Nafpaktos. This coastal town in western Greece is famed for its Venetian heritage, notably its well-preserved Venetian castle and harbor. Once an important naval station in the Corinthian Gulf, Nafpaktos boasts a charming old port with a distinctive circular shape and is also known for its role in the pivotal Battle of Lepanto in 1571.

Perché tutto in inglese?

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.
