Kafizidon [Kazifies] Dam Most Beautiful Reservoir Cyprus Nicosia District

This is perhaps the most beautiful reservoir from all of them.
Looks easy to drive even with a saloon car, but NOT! just for a while, after some points are hard to even to experienced local 4x4 experts. Rock sliding makes the road to narrow and altitude is pretty high very dangerous!! The river bed is okay to walking I didn't see waterfalls or other hard things, but if you choose that to challenge your self. You can't get out at the dam and I saw only 1-2 points were you able to get out and continue your trip on road. None of them close to the Dam!
