Neohori Valley

Mountain Bike Lefkas 

Ride Stats: Distance: 11km / Elevation Gain: 437m / Calorie Burn: 600

This ride takes the main road up to the mountain village of Neohori (meaning new village), from where you will see stunning panoramic views of the surrounding islands. This traditional rural village is home to four churches and this ride will take a small tour past the churches and stone houses before leaving the village behind on a fire road that takes you to the start of the downhill descent through the valley.

Neohori Valley hides a spectacular downhill track that snakes through the thick vegetation and terraced olive groves. Not forgetting to take the time to admire the view, this descent does however require concentration and some skill due to the uneven rocky terrain. Neohori valley will finish in the lower village of Paleokatouna where we will take a drink stop at a café before an additional adrenaline filled descent through the olive groves of Paleokatouna.
