Cyprus is slowly gaining recognition among cyclists as a superb destination for pedal-powered holidays. Boasting good road surfaces, a pleasant spring and autumn climate and exhilarating sea and mountain scenery, Cyprus has all the ingredients for first-rate biking adventures.

Cycling Tours in Cyprus

Cyprus cycling trips offer a wide variety of levels from beginner to expert. For those seeking a leisurely ride without too much climbing, guided excursions in the Cape Greco National Park are an excellent choice. There are various trails to follow, making it a fun way to explore this popular and attractive headland and visit its sandy coves and spectacular sea caves.

If you savour a challenge, there are many exciting and rewarding bike tours from the coast up into Troodos mountains. The views are truly wonderful and there are plenty of places to pause for a Cypriot coffee and a bite to eat. Try the Limassol to Pano Patres route, for example, which passes through forests, orchards and vineyards as well as villages renowned for their wine production. See our collection of Cyprus food and wine tours if you are interested in learning more about Cypriot wine-making.

Cyprus Biking Holidays

Cycling adventures for intermediate riders are also widely available throughout the island.  Biking holidays on the Karpaz Peninsula in North Cyprus take you on moderately paced rides through quiet landscapes of citrus groves, old villages and splendid unspoilt beaches with stunning views all the way. Meanwhile, escorted city bike tours are a fun and effective way to see the sights of towns like Limassol and Famagusta.

Cycling trips are a wonderfully immersive way to explore a country’s rural and urban landscapes. If you would like to look at more holidays of this kind, browse our collection of worldwide cycling tours and start planning a trip today.
