Our cycling route takes us through a pleasant countryside of ancient olive groves, vineyards and traditional villages. We pedal mostly on backroads at a leisurely, yet invigorating, pace. In no time we arrive to our first destination, Sinardes, a small town having pride in its culture. We'll visit the Museum of Folk Art and History and a 15th century Venetian church.

The road continues to Pelekas, which is remembered as the site where Kaiser Wilhelm II built a strategic observatory to oversee inland and out to sea.
By the time we are ready for lunch, we arrive at Ermonies Bay whose beach first beckons us for a quick dip in its warm waters. A meal of fresh fish at a waterfront taverna overlooking the blinding blue sea has made all that pedaling worthwhile.

On our return, we traverse the Ropa Valley where vineyards abound. We will make our way lazily back to Corfu town as we stop here and there to taste some of the homegrown wine, perhaps even sit down and share a bottle with a local winegrower.

At the end of our ride you will be proud and amazed at the territory you covered and pleased by the simple encounters of the day. No doubt you will start wondering where and when you will cycle next on this scenic island.
