3 of the best motorcycle routes in Greece

The motorcycle is not only ideal for the city. Every motorcyclist has at some point thought of a trip or a route with their bike. Either way, motorcyclists have a unique way of enjoying the routes. Their bike becomes their companion, the means by which they explore and live moments of freedom. From beaches to mountains, motorcycle routes are full of adventure and exciting moments. Every road is a journey with opportunities for discoveries and escape from routine. Fortunately, Greece is full of motorcycle routes and many of them are just a step away from you. We will start with three beautiful routes that we think are worth enjoying.

Parnitha

The first destination is just a few kilometers from Athens and is a very good choice for someone who is just starting their journey into the world of motorcycles. Parnitha mountain is suitable to visit by motorcycle during the period when it is not snowy. You can take the cable car or do the entire climb. Starting from Metamorfosi in Attica and slowly leaving the city behind, you reach the foothills of Parnitha where the uphill and smooth turns begin. As you proceed, you will discover dense vegetation and greenery in the forest. An idyllic landscape that will compensate you. Of course, the fauna of the area is also remarkable as you can encounter all kinds of animals, even deer. Along the way, care must be taken to avoid endangering any “small” resident of the area and causing an accident.

The Peloponnese Tour

Leaving the Attica basin, we head south and specifically to the magical and mysterious Peloponnese. An area that offers many opportunities for exploration. From lakes and rivers to the sea and steep mountains, here you will find everything. You can take a week-long trip and cover large parts of this region, with stops in Epidaurus, Monemvasia, Mani, Sparta and other areas. Anyone who has managed to complete the tour admits that they have gotten to know Greece a little better. All these landscapes and destinations will leave you with lifelong memories while you will have the opportunity to discover its rich cultural heritage.

The island of Euboea

Last stop is the beautiful and special Evia, which hides secret beauties that surprise those who explore it. It is ideal for exploring in the summer by motorcycle, because you can easily reach beaches washed by the Aegean Sea and you can literally enjoy them alone, if you are looking for the magic of exploration. After the private beaches, you can visit the magnificent Dirfis. There you will find impressive off-road trails and, of course, wonderful hiking trails. This trip opens up a side of Evia that you could not have imagined, offering a unique experience full of adventure and beauty.

There are many motorcycle routes in Greece and as long as you have the right mood to discover them. But before you start your motorbike, make sure that you have taken all the necessary protective measures. We consider the helmet a given. However, good clothing will keep you in the ideal conditions to be comfortable on your trip. And don't forget! It is also very important to have your motorcycle checked by a mechanic to avoid unpleasant surprises in places where you may be... all alone.
