1. Beautiful Landscape:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Greece offers truly beautiful views and landscapes. You have the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea with the rugged mountains and associated valleys inland. Particularly the Peloponnese and Macedonia (in the north) are known for their diversity of terrain, but also for their beautiful views. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Historical places<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If there is one thing Greece is known for, it is its history. Discover the extensive history of Greece by bike. Visit famous places in the Peloponnese such as Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, and Mycenae, an important center of Greek civilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Challenging Routes:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Route 1: Across the Peloponnese <\/strong>
This route takes you from the coast of Nafplion to Leonidas and then via Sparta towards Kalamata. This route is for several days, but you really get to see all the highlights. Here you will find the highlights of ancient Greek civilization and, as we previously reported, the roads here are fantastic and you will hardly encounter anyone on a bike. Ideal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
