Cyprus is a natural mountain-biking place. Its terrain offers many opportunities for exciting mountain biking in different tracks, making the island a paradise for the sport’s fans. Due to the excellent weather conditions prevailing on the island, cycling sports can be enjoyed almost throughout

the year. Facilities for renting bicycles are available everywhere. General traffic regulations correspond to those in Europe, but traffic in Cyprus moves on the left hand-side, NOT ON THE RIGHT. Cyclists are advised to avoid cycling along the main roads at weekends, especially in the summer when traffic is very heavy. If possible, cyclists, should also avoid riding due west in the late afternoon, as the glare of the setting sun can be unpleasant and potentially dangerous. Sunglasses and sunhat, at all hours of the day, during the summer months, are most advisable.
