Overview: Starting at the Porto Carras resort in Neos Marmaras, you head up into the vineyards of this massive estate. The whole route from the sea to the peak is lined by a variety of vines, all listed with their sort. Part of the route is on gravel trails, but once you are on top of Melitonas (494 meters) you will get a stunning view. You now descend to the coast through the vineyards and return through the Porto Carras territory back to the resort. On the way you will pass about 30 sandy coves. Stop for a dip.A detailed description with a map is found on page 66 of the Halkidiki Bike Guide.

Today, 7 september 2017 I was with my wife to a cycling tour for 2 hours, 19 km and 600 m elevation in that area. We started near the wine shop. The tour was beautiful and silent with medium difficulty, but at the half of the trip, at east side of that area we have been attacked by 4 big white dogs and the sheppard did not call them back and gave us no help. I started to yell very laud and took my bike up to escape from there. Then we took our bikes on the back and carried them not to make noise to the
dogs. We were lucky and escape no harm.
