Rhodes is a superb cycling destination, combining rich history, varied terrain, and consistent sunshine. It’s the largest of the Dodecanese islands, and while it has a few busy tourist hubs, there’s a whole world of quiet inland roads, pine forests, and rolling farmland to explore by bike. The coastal routes are especially scenic, offering beautiful sea views and charming beachside villages, while the interior has a mix of moderate climbs and peaceful backroads that pass through traditional settlements.
The Peloponnese is one of Greece’s most underrated gems for cycling, offering a fantastic blend of rugged coastlines, sleepy mountain villages, and ancient ruins. It’s a vast and varied peninsula where you can ride past citrus orchards in Argolida, climb into the dramatic Taygetos mountains near Sparta, or trace the azure waters of the Mani coastline. History is woven into every pedal stroke here, from ancient theatres to Byzantine castles, making your rides feel like time-travelling adventures. With spring and autumn bringing ideal weather and blooming landscapes, the Peloponnese is perfect for those who want a mix of nature, culture, and rewarding climbs.
Kefalonia is a cyclist’s paradise for those who appreciate quiet roads, dramatic coastal scenery, and a slower pace of life. It’s one of the largest Ionian islands, and the variety here is impressive—from hairpin mountain climbs above Myrtos Beach to gentle coastal spins between fishing villages. While the terrain is definitely hilly, the pay-off comes in the form of breathtaking views, thrilling descents, and moments of absolute stillness in the island’s unspoiled interior. The traffic is minimal, especially outside the main towns, and the locals are always ready with a warm greeting or a helping hand. Cycling here feels like proper adventure—each ride brings a sense of discovery, whether you’re exploring hidden coves or ancient monasteries tucked into the hills.
