Come and discover the secret side of Cyprus - breathtaking scenery, deserted trails and the best local food. Re-energise and relax at our luxurious accommodation base where personal service is guaranteed.
We grade our trips based on cycling experience and fitness. Our "Green" beginner trips are aimed at reasonably fit people who may not have had much experience of cycling off road. Our "Amber" intermediate trips are for regular mountain bikers used to riding in all mountain situations. Whilst the terrain is not overly technical, at this level you should be able to cope with some tough climbs.
There is no set itinerary in terms of ride distance or location but all rides take place on the west of the island either in the Akamas region or the Pafos forest/lower Troodos region. Distances vary from 25-50km, dependent on the grade of trip and experience/requirements of the group.
Rides generally start around 9.30am and finish by 4.30pm allowing time for relaxation post ride/hike in the pool or jacuzzi.
Depending on the group's abilities, rides are chosen from a wide selection covering varying terrain and allow guests to acclimatise gradually to the climate and hilly terrain in Cyprus.
Lunches are either picnic style or taken at a local taverna en route dependent on the ride location. We take pride in sharing our secrets on where the best local tavernas are to refuel!
Guests may wish to bring their own bikes and can be confident that they will be transported carefully in our bespoke bike trailer where wheels do not need to be removed for transportation. They will also be securely locked away at night.
The terrain in Cyprus varies from gnarly, technical single track to wide flowing forest trails and rocky mule paths. There are many challenging hills but equally as many smooth downhill tracks through the forest, giving a wide variety of trails to suit all abilities. The predominant terrain is non-technical making Cyprus an ideal location for beginners or for those looking for relaxation as well as an energetic break.
Your accommodation is in our luxurious stone house set high on a hillside with spectacular views of the Chrysochous bay. Here you can relax and enjoy your luxurious ensuite room with cool, crisp cotton linen. You will have unforgettable views from your room or our spacious roof terrace and the use of the pool and outdoor spa.
We guarantee a true personal service and unique trails that you will not find on your own. The style of our holiday is totally relaxed and we include 1 rest day to allow time to unwind or try another activity.
Our group sizes are small with a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 8 riders although we can cater for larger groups by special arrangement.
PLEASE NOTE - Our small group holidays are NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN. (We do not have childrens bikes available for hire)
