More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start on two wheels, wind brushing the Aegean salt across your face as narrow lanes open into sun-bleached scrub and whitewashed houses. The route climbs gently away from the Kamares approach, a short uphill that rewards you with a 360° panorama of Naoussa Bay — islands, fishing boats and the serrated blue horizon. The guide briefs the group, checks helmets, and you roll past terraces of olive and thyme toward an ancient ridge.
