Tour of Deryneia Cycling Route
Even though this route is quite long (85 klometres), it is not difficult and goes past some of the most popular beaches of Cyprus as it travels along the coast before returning to Larnaka (Larnaca) via the “red soil” villages (Kokkinochoria) of the free Ammochostos area (Famagusta).

The route begins at Larnaka (Larnaca) Tourist Beach and heads east along the coastal road. It turns right at the roundabout just outside the British Sovereign Base Area of Dhekeleia, and enters the base. It turns right again at the next roundabout, goes past the Dhekeleia power station and travels along the outskirts of the village of Ormideia. It then turns right again, climbing a little as it passes outside the village of Xylofagou. Heading towards Agia Napa, the route goes past the fishing shelter of Potamos Liopetriou and then Makronisos before travelling along the main Agia Napa - Paralimni road. It then turns right on to the road for Cape Gkreko, along a bicycle path on the right hand side of the road (the side nearest the sea).

The turning to Cape Gkreko is 4 kilometers down the road to the right.Turning north from Cape Gkreko, the route goes past the Agios Anargyros picnic site and the Konnos area until it reaches Protaras. From Protaras the route continues to the village of Agia Triada where it turns left towards Paralimni. It cuts across Paralimni and reaches the road leading to Deryneia after turning right and heading north. From Deryneia the route heads back to Larnaka via the potato-growing “red soil” villages of Frenaros and Liopetri. After Xylofagou, it follows the same route back.
