Omalos plateau round - Hellasbikes.org recomended
A cycling route starting in Agia Marina, Crete, Greece.
Overview
About this route
88km trip whith around 1500m elevation meters. The way i went was the eaiest way. Longest uphill but canstantly percentage uphill. The trickiest part is from were you turn left by the windmills on the mountain at heading for Omalos in the plateau. There is still som uphill climbing left so dont push to much when you se the (false) top. From Omalos plateau yuo only have a short climb with one hairpin then its almost only downhill back to Platanias. the downhill is a bit hard bcause bad tarmac. Watch out for dogs, most of them are tied, but they will still freak you out when passing them. Take it easy when riding i the summer, it is very hot in the mountains and use boyh bottles on the bike and a camelback...!
