It wasn't so long ago that everyone who cycled past people on a mountain bike on Corfu was met with looks of disbelief.
That has changed rapidly!
Mountain biking has now become an extremely popular sport on Corfu, among Greeks and visitors alike. Of course, the hilly landscape is challenging, which is probably why bikers are particularly common on the flat coastal road in the north-east. Alone or in small groups, they whiz along, sometimes close to the sea.
On the north-east side, there are now even signposted routes with different levels of difficulty. One leads right up to the highest point of our paradisiacal island, the Pantokrator (906m).
