Cyprus Snow
Essential Cars
You really need a decent 4x4 if you live up here. Not just for when it snows, as it doesn't do that very often. But if you go into the forest, you can easily get stuck in mud at this time of year otherwise. The vineyards too are not exempt. You would be amazed how quickly a track can disintegrate.
Panagia Church
We are driving past the main church in Panagia now. It is hard to say whether it has been used today yet. There are no tracks in the snow outside, but the snow has only recently fallen, so who knows?
And yes, it is yet another Church dedicated to St George.
Mystery Flower Pot
I'm not sure where we were when Alex took these next two shots.
Water Feature
The water fountain looks very pretty in the snow.
Leaving Panagia
As you may have gathered, after Panagia we followed the main road round towards Paphos. We could have headed off into the forest (eventually ending up at Cedar Valley), but by now the charm of the snow had worn a bit thin. We could hear the distant call of hot coffee and central heating.

Thanks to the Troodos Webcam we were able to see that it had been snowing in the hills, so we packed our jumpers and headed off for some winter fun.
Paphos Snow
We had snow in Paphos! It doesn't happen that often, so we went out for a drive to take in the scenery. While not in the same league as the Troodos, it was still quite pretty, so join us as we take the road to Panagia...Related Pages

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
