E-bike tour to the Wild West Coast, from Kissamos to Sfinari

Enjoy a ride with electric mountain bikes to discover the rugged beauty of the West Coast of Crete starting from Kissamos to Sfinari!

Program
We start with a quick introduction to the use of electric mountain bikes. From Kissamos center, we head up into a quiet road, flanked by olive groves along a narrow valley.

The route circles around the foothills of the Manna mountain, and eventually opens up over the coast. From here we have staggering views towards the distant islets North of Falasarna, towards Balos, and beyond. Looking West, the road winds up and down over the coast.

We spot a remote beach with unbelievable blue waters. After a long downhill section, we arrive at the traditional coastal village of Sfinari, where the fish tavernas hang out freshly caught octopi to cure.

After a short break, we ride back up the coastal road. At the top of the hill, we take a detour to explore the farming area and the tiny hamlets. This is where the locally renowned onions of Gramvousa and the domesticated Stamnagathi, a bitter wild herb, are grown.

We pass the harbor and finish in Kissamos where we started from. Here we say goodbye and depart with memories to cherish.

Having stretched our legs, we cycle down the last section on a quiet road back into Kissamos where we started from, where we say goodbye and depart with memories to cherish.
