We'll head north out of Paphos and straight into one of Cyprus’ most rewarding climbing routes — a smooth 16km ascent at just 2% average, leading you to the spectacular Extreme View lookout.

Ride through the striking Chasampoulion Rock formations and roll into Kidasi for a relaxed coffee stop before tackling the main climb of the day. The road winds up toward Dora, crossing the photogenic Trozena Wooden Bridge. Then it’s a long, exhilarating descent all the way to historic Kouklia — the ancient capital of the Paphos region — for coffee and snacks, before cruising back to Paphos on the main road.

A scenic, story‑rich ride packed with gentle gradients, big views, and authentic Cypriot charm.

Today we'll take on Cyprus’ ultimate challenge — a spectacular ride from sun‑soaked Paphos all the way to the island’s highest peak, Mount Olympus. Roll out along the coast before heading inland through traditional villages, forested valleys, and ever‑cooler mountain air as the road lifts you toward the legendary summit. This is a climb that builds beautifully: long, steady gradients, sweeping views, and that growing sense of achievement with every kilometre. At the top, you’re rewarded with panoramic vistas across the Troodos Mountains — the kind of moment every cyclist remembers. The descent is pure joy, a fast, flowing run back through pine forests and wine country before returning to Paphos with a story worth telling. A true Mediterranean epic for riders who want to conquer Cyprus’ rooftop.

The shorter option sets out from Paphos and follows the familiar Wooden Bridge route — but this time, the adventure goes bigger. Once past Kidasi, you'll settle into a smooth 8 km climb to Agios Nikolaos, the perfect spot to regroup, sip a coffee, and soak up the mountain calm. From here, the road sweeps through the breathtaking Geopark, delivering view after view, before curving into the beautiful village of Omodos for coffee, cake, or a leisurely lunch. The return rolls through vineyard country and rejoins the Wooden Bridge route — and even though the roads repeat, the scenery, the light, and the feel of the ride make it a completely new experience. A scenic, flavour‑packed day out in the heart of wine country.
