You cycle to 99% on paved roads and only a few km on gravel roads. The fertile plateau of Tripoli and the flat region between Nafplion and Agros are crossed by small and very small asphalt roads and also on the few passages on wider roads is almost no disturbing traffic. Overall, the region is sparsely populated and is therefore ideally suited for low traffic pleasure-cycling. At each stage there are some short and some long slopes to master, but overall the descents dominate. That is because you are starting in Tripoli at 600 m altitude and roll down to the sea and also the transfer to Epidauros takes you at 300 m altitude and again you roll down to the sea. With a basic physical condition this "moderate" tour is easy to accomplish and enjoy.

Look forward to a wonderful cycling circuit through the mountainous world of Peloponnese. From Vytina over narrow streets  through a rugged mountain world, green forests and small dreamy places to the lively town Tripoli, the capital of the region. A total of 550 Height difference.

Look forward to the first day’s tour through the plateau around Tripoli. Marvel at the richness of the earth as you cycle through vast apple orchards, small orchards and scattered vineyards. Completely unexpectedly, you will suddenly find yourself in front of one of the most important caves in Greece with magnificent stalactite creations, before you get to know a selection of red, rosé and white wines at a winegrower’s. Other highlights of your round trip are the excavations of the ancient city of Mantinea and the quirky, surreal church. A total of 270 meters of elevation gain. Overnight stay again in Tripoli.

Passing the ruins of the temple of Athena Alea in Tegea, you will cycle through wide olive groves and down through the Parnonas Mountains to the old, picturesque fishing village of Paralio Astros with its miles of pebble beach and tranquil restaurants right on the water. Shortly before reaching your destination for the day, however, you should definitely pay a visit to the small monastery of Loukós as well as a short visit to the current excavations of the ancient city of Eva. A total of 700 meters in altitude.

A beautiful bike route on the coastal road awaits you today. Again and again you will be fascinated by magnificent views of the turquoise sea, small fishing boats and the wide bay of the Argolic Gulf. After a refreshing swim in the sea, you will roll on in the fertile plain to Argos, which is one of the oldest cities in Europe. Impressive here is not only the mighty fortress high up on the Lárissa mountain, but especially the archaeological site at the foot of the mountain. Marvel at the ancient remains of the amphitheater built into the mountain, one of the largest in Greece. Look forward to your destination for the day with its narrow old town streets, beautiful harbor promenade and many cafes. Not for nothing is the picturesquely situated Nafplion today considered the most attractive city in Greece. A total of 460 meters in altitude.

Today you will roll through vast orange and lemon groves to Mycenae, a massive walled fortress built some 3300 years ago, one of the most important cities of the ancient world. The climb up the mountainside is quickly forgotten as you marvel at impressive excavations and significant finds. The world-famous Lion’s Gate, which weighs several tons, and the shaft tombs are among the great cultural-historical attractions of Greece and will delight not only us cyclists. A total of 360 meters in altitude. Overnight stay in Nafplion.

The last cycling stage of your trip begins comfortably with a transfer to Epidauros, which is one of the historical highlights of every trip to Greece. Let yourself be impressed by the gigantic and well-preserved amphitheater, which is over 2,300 years old and in its time had a capacity of 14,000 spectators! After an extensive tour you will get on your bikes. Most of the time you will ride downhill through the mountainous karst landscape and through the wide pistachio cultivation area back to the coast. Enjoy another refreshing swim in the crystal clear sea water and look forward to another evening in Nafplion. A total of 330 meters in altitude. Overnight stay in Nafplion.
