KARPAS PENINSULA, CYPRUS
The highest point of Cyprus is the island’s very own Mt Olympus, at 1,952 metres. You won’t need Olympian fitness, however, for a cycling trip around the Karpas Peninsula. Freedom Treks’ new self-guided tour for 2018 heads to this 45-mile finger of land, where sweeping landscapes are the norm, especially at the largely deserted Golden Beach.

(Note that the trip takes place in the northern part of the island, not under the control of the internationally recognised Republic of Cyprus.)
