These thermal springs in Thermopylae were the perfect thing I encountered after a few tough days of riding. Besides being an amazing place to camp, the warm running water was exactly what I needed for my tired legs.
Cycling this part of Greece is not part of any trail, but here and there you find some less-known gems that are worth exploring and this was only one of them. Cycling from Athens to Thessaloniki was not spectacular in the sense that the landscape was more or less the same and industrial in some places. But the MOST frustrating thing was the number of flat tires that I got. Every day, for the course of a week I had to change my at least once my tubes. It seems Greece doesn’t want to let me go so easily.
It was a roller coaster and a mental game to push every day long distances with not so much distraction on the road, but I was happy to have reached another big highlight of Greece and to finally change my clothes for thicker ones.
