Greece: Ridden Slowly

The Peloponnese at the pace it deserves

The ride

Eight days through the Peloponnese at the pace it deserves, olive groves, mountain villages, ruins with nobody else there, and long tables of food.

The Peloponnese is the part of Greece that most visitors fly over on the way to an island. It has the ruins, the mountains, the coast and the food, and in spring and autumn it has almost nobody on it.

Highlights

CultureMycenae before the crowds

Three thousand years old, and quiet if you get there early.

CyclingArcadian mountains

Up into stone villages where the roads were built for donkeys.

CyclingCoastal olive roads

Long descents to the water through groves that have been worked for centuries.

CultureThe Mani towers

Stone tower houses on the middle finger of the Peloponnese.

FoodLong Greek tables

Lunches that take two hours because they should.

NatureWater worth stopping for

Swim stops most days, on beaches with nobody on them.

Day by day

Tap any day to open it.

Day 1Nafplio+

Arrive in the prettiest harbor town in the Peloponnese, under a Venetian fortress. An easy shakedown spin and dinner on the waterfront.

Day 2Mycenae+

Ride up to a citadel three thousand years old and walk in through the Lion Gate before the coaches arrive. Back down through olive country.

Day 3Into the mountains+

Away from the coast and up into Arcadia, on roads built for donkeys and paved as an afterthought. Stone villages, cold spring water, and quiet.

Day 4Arcadia+

High, green and almost empty. A long descent in the afternoon that pays back everything you climbed the day before.

Day 5To the coast+

Down to the water through gorges and groves, finishing where the mountains fall into the sea and the swimming starts again.

Day 6The Mani+

Stone tower houses stacked on a bare peninsula, built by families who spent centuries feuding. Stark, dramatic, and unlike anywhere else in Greece.

Day 7Olive country+

Slow and golden. Coastal lanes through groves that have been worked continuously for two thousand years, with a long lunch in the middle of it.

Day 8Finish+

One last ride, one last swim, and a final long table before departures.
