Experience a ride through the Seich Sou forest in the dark
THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT OF THIS MEDITERRANEAN CITY IS SURROUNDED BY THE FOREST OF SEICH SOU. ITS HISTORY GOES ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE OTTOMAN PERIOD. IT IS THE LARGEST SUBURBAN FOREST IN GREECE, 30.000 ACRES COVERED MAINLY BY PINES, CONSTITUTING THE MAIN GREEN “LUNG” OF THE CITY. IT INCLUDES NUMEROUS TRAILS AND FOREST ROADS, COVERING THE WHOLE FOREST FROM THE EASTERN BORDERS OF THE CITY ALL THE WAY TO THE WEST, OFFERING ASTONISHING VIEWS OF THE AEGEAN SEA.
With a wide variety of country roads and forest trails around our base, the team at Trail Tales plans the perfect ride for you.
From last-gen enduro eMTBs from Cube to high-quality safety gear from Bluegrass, we offer our clients the best gear available.
Each member of Trail Tales is a certified MTB guide and RTI trained, so they can take you everywhere safely.
What's a typical ride with us
Seich Sou is a forest with multiple different routes for every ride & fitness level. Don’t forget that we can always tailor the rides to your needs.
We meet at Trail Tales Base 30 minutes before our departure, where we make the final bike checks and adjustments according to every rider’s needs. The essential parts of your latest technology bikes (suspensions, brakes, motor etc) are pointed out to give you a better understanding of the gear and its endless capabilities.
Every rider receives the necessary protection gear (helmet, gloves and knee protectors). In less than 5 minutes from our base, we enter Seich Sou and take the route cut out just for you and your friends. Before we start pedaling up the hills, we have an important briefing on the basic principles of E-Mountain Biking (bike stance, breaking, pedal efficiency etc).
We start inclining through the forest to reach its highest points and enjoy the view from the observatory. We take advantage of the magical moments and offer you a snack to keep you going. A little bit of flat ground pedaling and start descending our way back. The kind of Descending is entirely up to you. We offer relaxed descends through forest roads and wide flowy trails appropriate for beginners, providing time to enjoy the view and the calmness of the outdoors, or we go down adrenaline singletrack trails for the experienced MTB riders. A cold beverage is waiting for us back in our base, where we have time to share all the tales from the trails we have ridden !
