Motorcycle dual-purpose and Adventure Greece, to Serres, Fort Roupel & Kerkini Lake, self guided on a BMW

Serres is the place where cultures and religions met. Although there is no muezzin to call the faithful to prayer there are still in existence three extremely well-preserved buildings left from the Ottoman occupation that ended in 1913. Two mosques – the Tsitsirli and Ahmet Pasha – and the third is the Bezesteni market, which now houses the Archaeological Museum and it is well known for its 6 domes. If you have a sweet tooth then Serres is the place to be! They have wonderful Turkish delights, Akanedes in the local dialect and Loukoumia in Greek, as well as the most famous Bougatsa, a pastry pie filled with crème patisserie and dusted with powdered sugar. There are varieties of bougatses with savoury fillings like cheese, spinach or minced meat but nothing compares to the sweet sugary taste of the original!

Lake Kerkini in the shade of Mount Beles is a wetland full of wonderful pictures. Boating with the "blavas", the name for the boats, the picturesque villages and the rare fauna make up a frame of absolute enjoyment. Fort Rupel, the largest underground fort amongst the 21 forts named “Metaxas Line”, a reference point of the Greek resistance to the upcoming occupation, fills the visitor with pride. 

Alistrati cave complex is one of the largest and most beautiful systems in Greece. Although known for many years by the local population it only started being explored in 1975 by the Hellenic Speleological Society. Its explored surface reaches 25.000 sq. m and its stalagmites and stalactites are of unique and rare beauty.

This self guided motorcycle voyage is structured to offer amazing trails, historical and national monuments, unparalleled beauty villages, and enjoyable stay
