The Seven Springs by Car Hire

How to Get to Seven Springs with your Car Hire!

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.

Safe travels, and don’t forget to send us a postcard!
