Short and sweet post this one.

Has anyone got any knowledge of good single track on ny of the greek islands? obviously some of the islands are riddles with walking trails etc so there must be something out there?

Its a long term dream but would love to one day live on a greek island but it could never happen without trails to ride.

I visited Naxos a few years back and there were definitely some mtb tracks around

Neilsons and Mountain Beach both used to run holidays out of Nidri on Lafkas so there's something there. Was some time ago, I think it's a bit tame by modern standards. Then again, no reason why the riding wouldn't have evolved with everything else though.

Yes, Lefkada is a lovely island and whenever I've been there for the windsurfing in Vassiliki both Club Vass and Neilson have mountain bike rides in the morning. It's mostly olive groves and gravel but there are some longer trails up to the White Church and the lighthouse.

Yep Vass is a great combo if you are a MTBer/Windsurfer. The trails are OK. Loose gravel/rock stuff. It’s been a few years since we have been there. I need to get back in 2022!
