Rethymno is among the Bikeable Cities

Rethymno bike friendly destination EN

Rethymno is now officially part of the six cities in Greece that apply good practices in areas of alternative transportation means, have the infrastructure, and are implementing a series of actions that enhance sustainable mobility.

The award and certification of the Municipality of Rethymno come as a recognition of many years of efforts and achievements, bringing a dynamic momentum to Rethymnon as a tourist destination, attracting visitors who choose alternative forms of tourism. Through cycling, visitors are open to new experiences, contact with nature, and acquaintance with the city and inland. That promises multiple benefits such as the extension of the tourist season, the constant goal for tourism "all year round" and significantly stimulating the local economy.

The Municipality of Rethymno has the infrastructure that can support cycling tourism and is friendly for cycling routes both in the city and the inland, with more than 15 km of bicycle paths in the city and more than 100 km in the broader area.

 The last weekend of October was also the last regional cycling race for Atlas athletes.  What an amazing way to end the season by taking place at a mountain bike cycling racing experience!

More than 90 riders, representing 30 clubs from all over Greece,  took part in the final race of the regular season for the Rethymno Cycling Leagues  Rethymno was hosting about 160 people and it was a great pleasure being here with us, impressed by the resilience shown by the riders.
