MTB Holiday Tours follow roads and paths with moderate until steep gradients. Advanced mountain bike riding skills, MTB bike control and sporting condition are the requirements for the MTB Single track program participation.
Our mountain bike vacation tours Level II in Crete:
- Arsani
This is our "MTB test tour" - one through the fantastic mountain bike hinterland of RETHYMNON. The small mountain villages with their earthly tavernas tempt us to take a rest. The MTB tour ends with a breathtaking descent back to the north coast. Distance: 50 km / 720 m Altitude gain - Margarites
A relaxing mountain bike tour to MARGARITES, the Mecca of pottery and ceramics. The ancient olive groves which we ride through give us the feeling of Crete's timelessness. Distance: 68 km / 990 m Altitude gain - Melidoni
Through endless ancient olive groves we follow the path to the MELIDONI CAVE, one of the biggest and most interesting on Crete. After a short expedition into cave, famous because of its history and stalactites, we head back to the MTB center along the north coast. Distance: 57 km / 900 m Altitude gain - Fantastico
From ARSANI we climb mostly on gravel tracks up to Mount GARGANI (700 m) and take a difficult mountain bike downhill directly into the valley of AMARI. After crossing the PRASSANO river-bed we climb again to an altitude of 450 m in order to return to RETHYMNON on one of Crete's hardest MTB downhills. Distance: 115 km / 1.900 m Altitude gain - Thronos
A fantastic mountain biking experience. RETHYMNON to THRONOS means intriguing MTB climbs and breathtaking mountain bike descends through the spectacular mountains and through untouched villages. Both the smooth road sections and hard tracks require good MTB bike control. Distance: 87 km / 1.750 m Altitude gain - Lefka Ori Crossing
The WHITE MOUNTAINS, the wildest and the most aggressive mountain range of Crete fulfil every mountain biking dream. We set at 700 m and cross the SFAKIA. We are passing lonely settlements on the MTB way from ASIGONIA to ARGIROUPOLIS, where we take a break by the old water well. In KATO POROS we decide on a route to the mountain bike centre, depending on wishes and fitness. Distance: 155 km / 2.650 m Altitude gain
