E-bike Tour from Chania to the Theriso Gorge

Explore the rugged Mediterranean landscapes of the Gorge of Theriso on an e-bike tour and spend around 5 hours pedaling along stunning paths, hidden forests, and beautiful viewpoints on this amazing adventure! The Theriso Gorge, also named Eleftherios Venizelos, is located 10 km south of Chania. With its impressive cliffs and nature, the gorge is one of the most beautiful in Crete!

On the day of your e-bike tour to the Theriso Gorge from Chania, you'll receive a message from your instructor confirming the meeting point you need to reach for the start of the adventure. Then, your instructor will introduce themselves and give you a quick introduction to the use of electric mountain bikes, as well as a few safety recommendations for the journey. Once you're ready, you'll begin to pedal!

Your e-bike tour from Chania will begin as you ride from the outskirts of Chania straight into Theriso gorge. The scenery changes surprisingly fast. One minute you are in the city, and the next you are immersed in nature! You'll pedal on a quiet road full of greenery, where tall plane trees will provide some shade, and the river flows next to you. Along the way, you'll make stops to watch the cliffs and the rocky formations that form the gorge walls.

The road climbs up for a while, but thanks to the high-quality electric bikes you'll be riding, you can adjust the effort you put in and save some energy to enjoy all the beautiful scenery! Towards the end of the climb, you'll get to Theriso village, where you'll enjoy a short break, stretch your legs around the large square, and breathe in the revolutionary air. And past Theriso village, you'll go through an impossibly scenic section of cypress woods and tall vertical cliffs on the foothills of the White Mountains.

Finally, it’s all downhill. You'll pass a mountain village with natural springs and end up in the orange valley, where avocado and citrus fruit trees spread to the horizon. The e-bike excursion to Theriso Gorge ends on flat roads as you return to the original meeting point, where you'll return the equipment, say goodbye to your instructor, and depart with memories to cherish.

Don't miss your chance to spend an amazing day paddling along the natural landscapes of northern Crete, and getting to know its fauna, flora, and historical landmarks. Book your e-bike tour from Chania to the Theriso Gorge today!
