Due to its ideal weather for cycling, especially in the months between October and April, Cyprus has taken off as a destination for cycling enthusiasts, both for those who enjoy the sport and for those who want to explore the island. The third largest island in the Mediterranean, Cyprus, combines attractive beaches with pine-clad peaks, busy modern towns with tranquil old stone villages and vineyards and olive groves with ancient monuments. The planning of a fully signposted national cycle network, including EuroVelo 8 - Mediterranean Route, is underway in the country.
Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO) is creating a national cycling network in Cyprus consisting of signposted routes in rural areas. Bike centres on the island offer rental services, route information, guide assistance and support. They can organise your journey through a varied landscape combining mountain views, rugged coastlines, tranquil vineyards, olive groves and fascinating ancient ruins.
