Kas Bike Tours – A Day of Pedals and Peace with Nature
Introduction: Not Just a Tour, but an Inner Journey
Some trips begin with a ticket, luggage, and an itinerary. And then there are others that begin with a deep breath. The Kas bike tour belongs to the latter. It’s not just a scenic ride. It’s a day where you leave the city, but more importantly, return to yourself.
You’re not part of a tourist crowd with name tags. You’re in a small group of people just like you—those who are tired of the noise, who want to hear their own thoughts, and feel their heartbeat sync with the rhythm of the road. This tour doesn't require athleticism. Just the willingness to slow down, open your eyes, and let nature speak to you directly.
Morning: Waking Up in Kas and Meeting the Route
Kas is a small coastal town, full of charm, history, and simplicity. Its narrow streets, whitewashed houses with blue shutters, and the smell of fresh bread in the morning—all of it invites slowness. The day begins at one of the central squares. Your guide, a calm and friendly local, greets you with genuine warmth. He’s not just here to show you the route—he’s here to help you feel at home.
Before setting off, there’s a short briefing and a check of the bikes and helmets. The mountain bikes are sturdy and comfortable. The helmets are adjusted to each participant. The guide asks a few real questions—not to tick a box, but to understand how the group wants to ride. Everything is sincere and human.
Transfer to Gömbe – A Gentle Passage into Another World
The first part of the journey is by minibus. But it’s not just about “getting tourists to the start point.” It’s about gradually shifting from the noise of town to the peace of the mountains. As you drive, Kas slowly disappears behind you. The road narrows. Ahead: green slopes, olive groves, pine forests, old stone walls. You might see goats grazing, a minaret standing quietly in the distance. Like a postcard—but unfiltered.
There’s a calm in the vehicle. People look out the window, speak softly, or simply sit in silence. It’s a moment of quiet anticipation. You begin to feel that today will be different.
The Ride Begins: The Bicycle Becomes Your Breath
In Gömbe, the air feels new. Cooler, richer. You stretch, drink some water, and feel your body settle into motion. There’s a short warm-up. Someone takes a picture. The guide gives final advice. And then you begin.
The route is about 12 kilometers. Not a race. Not a test. A road to feel. It winds through forests, open fields, and quiet villages. Sometimes the path is smooth, sometimes rocky. You may ride along trails where only shepherds have walked all week. A small stream murmurs beside you. Trees whisper above. You just ride. No headphones. No phone in hand. Just you and the path.
The guide stops at meaningful points—to share a view, a story, a pause. The group moves at a gentle pace. It’s not about getting somewhere. It’s about being present.
Lunch: Honest Food, Deep Taste
By noon, it’s time for lunch. But forget restaurants and waiters. This is nature’s dining room. You sit under trees, on simple wooden benches. The meal is real and humble: freshly made gözleme—Turkish flatbread with potato or cheese filling, a hot glass of tea, seasonal fruit, an energy bar, and as much water as you need. Nothing fancy. Just flavor, silence, and satisfaction.
You eat slowly. You talk quietly. Some close their eyes and just listen to the breeze. After eating, there’s no rush. You can sit longer, watch the clouds, or just breathe.
The Second Half: The Return is the Reward
The journey continues. The trail winds again—now a bit higher, a bit quieter. Your legs work. Your mind rests. Along the way, there are lookout points, old cemeteries with marble stones, silent mosques, forgotten wells. At times, just vast silence and space.
You stop not because you’re tired, but because you want to. You want to watch, to listen, to remember how to simply be.
Ending the Day: Something Stays with You
When the ride ends, you return to where you started. The bikes are parked. Helmets come off. Someone laughs. Someone sips water. You’re physically tired, but inwardly—calm. It’s not about how many kilometers you rode. It’s about what you felt along the way.
There’s a group photo. Some exchange numbers. Some just sit quietly in the van. On the ride back, no one says much. But you can tell: everyone is thinking about the same things. The scent of pine, the crunch of gravel, the warmth of the gözleme.
Why This Tour Will Stay With You
Because it’s not just a tour. It’s a day where you breathed, pedaled, tasted, listened, and felt—genuinely. No filters. No schedule. No pressure. Just you and the road.
Because everything was real: the air, the food, the route, the people, the silence. Nothing staged. Only the journey. Only the moment. Only you.

Things to Know Before You Ride
No Pressure, No Rush – This Is Not a Race
Our Kaş Bike Tours are all about joy, nature, and balance — not speed. You won’t be asked to push yourself beyond comfort. This isn’t a race. It’s a chance to enjoy the scenery, breathe deeply, and move at your own pace. Frequent stops allow everyone to take in the views, snap photos, and chat with fellow riders.
Equipment Provided
Each participant receives a high-quality mountain bike and a safety helmet. The bikes are well-maintained and adapted for diverse terrain — from smooth village roads to scenic mountain tracks. Before departure, our guides adjust everything to your comfort and ensure your safety.
Who Can Join?
These tours are open to everyone — regardless of experience level. Whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced cyclist, the pace and route will be tailored to match the group. Children aged 8 and above are welcome too, as long as they are accompanied by a parent or guardian and can confidently ride a bike. We provide child-sized bikes and extra care for younger riders.
What to Wear and Bring
We recommend breathable sportswear, comfortable sneakers or closed-toe shoes, and sun protection like a cap, sunglasses, and sunscreen. A refillable water bottle is a smart idea — although we also provide unlimited drinking water throughout the tour. If you're joining in warmer months, pack a swimsuit and towel too; many of our routes offer time to relax by a river or cool off in a hidden bay.
Group Size
We keep our groups intimate and friendly — usually between 4 to 10 riders. This allows our guides to focus on each participant, adjust the pace, and create a more personal connection throughout the ride. Whether you come alone, with a partner, or with a small group of friends or family, you’ll feel included and supported.
A Simple Yet Delicious Meal
Midway through the ride, we’ll stop for a local-style lunch in nature. This includes freshly made gözleme (a Turkish flatbread filled with cheese, greens, or potatoes), fresh fruit, an energy bar, traditional Turkish tea, and unlimited water. The meal is light but satisfying — just enough to recharge you for the return journey.
Weather and Conditions
Kaş has a mild Mediterranean climate with long cycling seasons. Spring (April–June) and early autumn (September–October) offer the most pleasant temperatures. Tours may be canceled or rescheduled in case of rare extreme weather conditions like storms or heavy rain, but sunny skies are typical. Our team will keep you informed ahead of time and ensure safe conditions for every tour.
Respect for Nature and Locals
As we cycle through small villages and untouched countryside, we kindly ask all participants to respect the environment and local life. Say hello to farmers, ride quietly past grazing goats, and never leave litter behind. This is more than a bike tour — it’s a shared space, and your care helps preserve its beauty.
Safety First
All routes are pre-checked and adjusted based on group ability and weather. Our guides are trained in first aid and emergency response. If at any point you feel tired, unwell, or just want to take a break, that’s absolutely okay. We’re here to support you, not push you.

A Scenic Day Trip from Kaş to the Mountains
09:30 AM – Departure from Kaş Center
Your day begins at 09:30 AM in the heart of Kaş. After meeting your guide and a short briefing, you board the transfer vehicle for a peaceful ride inland. As you leave the coastline behind, the landscape transforms into pine forests, winding village roads, and the crisp air of the Taurus Mountains.
10:30 AM – Arrival in Gömbe and Bike Setup
Upon arrival in the traditional mountain town of Gömbe around 10:30 AM, the bikes are unloaded and helmets are adjusted. Your guide gives a quick rundown on the route and riding conditions. A short warm-up ride through the village helps you get comfortable with the terrain, while you pass by orchards, quiet lanes, and old stone houses.
Midday Break Among Nature
12:30 PM – Light Lunch with Local Flavors
Around 12:30 PM, the group gathers under shaded trees or a natural rest area for a well-deserved lunch break. The meal includes freshly made gözleme (Turkish stuffed flatbread), seasonal fruits, a natural energy bar, and unlimited drinking water. Turkish tea is served for a warm and relaxing touch. This quiet pause offers time to connect with fellow cyclists and take in the peaceful atmosphere.
Afternoon Adventure on the Highlands
03:30 PM – Yayla Trail Ride (Approx. 12 km)
The highlight of the tour begins at 03:30 PM: a scenic ride across highland trails totaling approximately 12 kilometers. The path is moderately challenging and suitable for most riders, including families. Expect wide views, wildflowers, grazing goats, and the occasional wave from a local shepherd.
The pace is leisurely with planned stops, allowing you to catch your breath and take photos. Optional detours lead to scenic viewpoints over Yeşilgöl and the surrounding peaks — ideal for a group photo or simply soaking in the view.
Winding Down and Return to Kaş
04:30 PM – Departure from Gömbe and Return Transfer
At around 04:30 PM, the group returns to the starting point in Gömbe. Bikes are packed, and the return journey to Kaş begins. The drive back offers time to reflect on the day’s ride, breathe in the last of the mountain air, and relax after an active adventure. You arrive in Kaş just in time to enjoy the golden hour by the sea.
