How To Get To The Seven Springs

How to Get to Seven Springs: Your Easy Guide

There’s nothing quite like escaping the buzz of Rhodes Town and heading into nature—especially when your destination is the magical Seven Springs (Epta Piges). If you’re renting a car or bike, you’re already on the right track for a smooth, scenic journey. Here’s your stress-free guide to getting there, with a few local tips along the way.

Option 1: By Car – A Leisurely Drive Through Rhodes’ Beauty

Renting a car gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace. The drive to Seven Springs takes about 30-40 minutes, depending on traffic (which is rarely an issue outside peak season).

Step-by-Step Directions:

Start at AutoRhodes (Rhodes Office) – Pick up your rental, double-check your fuel, and make sure you’ve got water (trust us, you’ll want it later).
Head Southwest – Take Leof. Iraklidon towards Paradisi.
Merge onto the Main Road (Rhodou-Petaloudon) – Follow signs for Lindos/Kiotari.
Take the Turn for Archipoli/Kolymbia – After about 20 minutes, you’ll see signs for Epta Piges (Seven Springs).
Final Stretch – The last part winds through lush greenery—roll down the windows and enjoy the fresh pine-scented air!

Parking Tip: There’s a small lot near the entrance, but it can fill up in summer. Arrive early or be prepared for a short walk.

Option 2: By Bike – For the Adventurous Souls

If you’re up for a little adventure, renting a scooter or motorbike is a fantastic way to feel the wind in your hair while soaking in the island’s landscapes.

What to Know Before You Go:

Distance: ~25 km (about 45 minutes, depending on stops).
Route: Similar to the car route, but bikers should be extra cautious on the main road—some drivers can be a bit speedy.
Best for: Those comfortable on two wheels and looking for a fun ride.

Pro Tip: Wear sunscreen and bring a light jacket—the mountain air can get cooler than expected.

Why Seven Springs is Worth the Trip

Once you arrive, you’ll understand why this spot is a local favourite. The shaded trails, natural springs, and even a small tunnel walk through ankle-deep water make it a unique escape. There’s a charming taverna nearby if you get hungry—try the fresh Greek salad and grilled lamb.

Final Advice from AutoRhodes:

Early birds win: Arrive before 11 AM to avoid crowds.
Comfortable shoes are a must—some paths are rocky.
Cash is king – Some small vendors don’t take cards.

Whether you choose a car for comfort or a bike for thrill, AutoRhodes has you covered. All that’s left is BOOK NOW to hit the road and let Rhodes surprise you.
