Ride through authentic villages and the peaceful foothills of Crete.
This route takes you through the peaceful foothills of Vrisinas Mountain, leaving the busy streets of Rethymno behind as you cycle along quiet countryside roads and through traditional Cretan villages. After a relaxing coffee stop in Armenoi Village (with an optional visit to the Olive Press Museum, depending on availability), the ride continues around the mountain with beautiful views and a scenic descent toward the lush Amari Valley.
The journey passes by the impressive Amari Dam and continues through nature-filled landscapes, before finishing with a relaxing seaside ride back to Rethymno, following a light traditional lunch at a local taverna.
