Mountain Bike, route: Nea Sinopi - Ancient Nikopolis, Preveza

The route we choose combines in an impressive way the succession of landscapes mountains and sea as it moves into forest dirt roads of incomparable beauty and in altitude 0 to 100 m with mild and some tough climbs and alternates in idyllic forest passes, with the longest coast of Europe that unfolds lacy without an end for kilometers.

The route starts at the beach of Kanali along the coast of the village and through olive tree gardens and orange groves, and it will lead us to a steep dirt road to the village of Archangelos where we will meet surviving columns of the Roman Aqueduct, and from there we will cross a passable dirt road in dense vegetation with huge plane trees, eucalyptus trees, and holm oaks until we get downhill to the village of Smyrtoyla.

From the top of the hill where the monument of Augustus is located we stare with background the Ionian Sea, at the ancient Nikopolis, the Roman walls, the Roman Odeon, the ancient theatre, the nymphaeum, Roman baths, and historical points that we will meet on the way up to get to the aesthetic forest of mytikas.

A magical journey into history, through archaeological sites with Mediterranean pine trees and narrow paths. Cycling at the spectacular coastal route we will stop at the village of Mytikas at organized cafés to enjoy fresh juices, coffee, and definitely the beneficial influence of the Mediterranean Sea.
