Tough climb. Very nice views to the sea and once at the top also from the other side of the island. The climb% is sometimes tougher than mentioned here. There are parts of 16 to 17% over hundreds of metres and a few times even 20%. Very nice climb but not for racing bikes. Mountain bike or gravel bike absolutely recommended.

Tough climb. Very nice views to the sea and once at the top also from the other side of the island. The climb% is sometimes tougher than mentioned here. There are parts of 16 to 17% over hundreds of metres and a few times even 20%. Very nice climb but not for racing bikes. Mountain bike or gravel bike absolutely recommended. On part of course Very many pits and almost everywhere stones on the course. Sometimes gravel sections. Them had zero traffic though. Ridden for at least an hour without encountering anyone. Downhill best not to take the same side because of the quality of some parts. Drove back down to Vasiliki. Better track. Lots of hairpin bends though

Pittige klim. Heel mooie verzichten naar zee en eens bij de top ook van andere kant van het eiland. De klim% zijn soms wel steviger dan hier vermeld. Zit stuk bij van 16 a 17% over honderden meters en paar keer zelfs 20%. Heel mooie beklimming maar niet voor race fiets. Mountainbike of gravelfiets absoluut aan te raden. Op deel van parkoers Heel veel putten en bijna overal steentjes op de baan. Soms gravelstukken. Hen wel nul verkeer gehad. Zeker uur gereden zonder iemand tegen te komen. Naar beneden best niet zelfde kant nemen vanwege de kwaliteit van sommige stukken. Ben terug naar beneden gereden naar Vasiliki. Beter baan. Veel haarspeldbochten wel
