Cycling / Mountain Biking in Athens, Greece

Cycling in Athens is not recommended as a way of getting about the city. Heavy traffic, confusing road systems and pollution make cycling here unappealing and potentially dangerous. However, if you want to explore the countryside outside Athens, bike rental outlets in the city can arrange a set of wheels for you at reasonable rates, and cycling in the Greek countryside is a great way to get off the beaten track and discover the ‘real’ Greece. However, few native Athenians dare to take their bicycles onto the daunting roads of Athens.
