There are some very large mountains that surround Vassiliki…. but don’t be put off as there are equally some very gentle rides in the olive groves that sweep down to the coastline.
Mounting Biking
Scenic views of the island
Our bikes: We’ll be honest we don’t provide top of the range mountain bikes as non of our clients want to do the hard core climbs… well non that we’ve come across yet! But they are a decent standard and well maintained. We provide helmets too but you need to bring trainers or similar (not flip flops).
Explore Scenic Views: The olive groves have a plethora of roads and tracks running through them, riding through them is a great way to enjoy the scenery and nature and is usually very peaceful. You’ll probably discover an interesting phenomenon too - if you head out towards the mountain (back to the sea) it’s an easy and gently ride for a km or so until you start to face some steeper roads and tracks – if you turn back then, you can almost freewheel all the way back! Of course you can have a go at the steeper inclines to make it a bit of a workout…and still freewheel back…
Group rides: We organise a couple of guided group rides each week – one a bit more challenging than the other.
On your bike: If you simply want to go out exploring on your own or with family or friends then the bikes are free to use outside of the guided group sessions. Simply sign out and sign back in. The bike shed is open 0800-1830.
