Itinerary description

Very cosy trail with beautiful views of surrounding Pafos forest hills. There are plenty of pine trees, endemic golden oaks and rock roses.If lucky, one can see wild mouflons, but if not, in the nearby village there is mouflon enclosure which can be visited separately.

TERRAIN: a narrow forest path, sometimes rocky. The official way is to go counterclockwise thus it will be mild ascent and somewhat steep descent. The latter maybe slippery in dry season due dry rolling stones, dry leaves, pine straw. So we decided to go the other way around with a bit steep ascent in the beginning and mild descent after.

SEASON: nice and shady trail with cool winds even in the beginning of summer. Perfect for any season.

SIGNS: there are direction signs as well as plants plates, a few benches as well.

KIDS: Ok for kids but not little ones as there is unprotected edge along the whole trail.

There is practically no parking at the start, barely for one car but a bit further on the road there is a side pocket for 2-3 cars.
