E-bike Tour: Traditional Villages of Kissamos

An E-bike ride to the historical villages inland of Kissamos.
Good for those who love to explore traditional history on quiet roads and gentle hills.

We set off from Kissamos on quiet roads and venture inland among olive groves and gentle valleys. We climb steadily and see the local farmed landscape.

The short tour
We direct ourselves to the village of Rokka, the site of an old town on an impressive huge rock overlooking a gorge. We park the bikes and explore the alleys and site on foot.
Alternatively, we ride through country backroads to the village of Polyrrinia. This was a strong town in antiquity, easily understood when we see its position perched on top of a commanding hill. We park the bikes and explore the narrow alleys and the historical ruins of aqueducts and rock cut houses.

The long tour
We go on a ride that combines a visit to the ancient towns of Rokka and Polyrrinia. We connect them via spectacular back country roads and explore a wide section of Kissamos area and its history.
