How is road cycling in Corfu, Greece ? The Greek Island of Corfu could be your next cycling holidays destination: lots of climbs, twisty roads with countless hairpins, beautiful landscape, clear blue water and great weather all year round. But it’s not quite a cycling paradise yet. Don’t book your holiday tickets before you check out this video to find out why !
3 cycling routes in the island & things to do and see. I will recommend you the road cycling routes that we’ve done on the island. All the best climbs are included: Pantokrator (the highest summit of the island), Spartilas & Sokraki hairpins and the beautiful Lakones village road with amazing views over Palaiokastritsa bay.

I’ve answered some of the most important questions that we also had before going to Corfu: Where to stay? How is the asphalt quality? How are the cycling routes? What bike to bring? What to do and see?

Thanks for sharing!
My friend, obviously you don't use swim googles when you get in the water! Otherwise you would have seen the imense quantity of garbage that exists at the bottom of the sea even in the most famous beaches, like Paleokatsritsa. Just a few meters from the coast, the sea bottom is full of garbage. Locals don't care. Only the money is important.
It's the same in the mainland. Secret places with hundeds of plastic bags with garbage, melting, disintegrating under the hot sun, evaporating toxins all around. Just as long the music is loud and the alcohol strong, nobody will see this reality. Until one day….
Nice place to visit, thanks!
Looks great – thanks for all the information 😎
Next time go to the other site of corfu.Mpenitses,cavos ,Agios Mathaios,Marmaro,Glufada,Ermones

Grea thanks for sharing.
This „music” ruins it. 🙁
Thanks for your video.. I am cycling 7 days on my Brompton folding bicycle with my partner… your video surely helps .. starting 10/10 we will have 7 days to explore…. Cheers
Excellent video !
I love riding around Thassos island and this is close to it. Important to go when it is not tourist season 😉
Great job on editing. I've been there and after watching the video I would love to go back. I just upgraded from a GoPro 9 to the Insta360 x3 I'm encouraged by the quality of your shots.
