Droushia Lowlands
Rocky 2
There were some interesting crystals here too. These sort are often be quite frustrating though. A lot of them have a tendancy to dissolve on contact.
Further Downstream
It turns out that to see the riverbed, we didn't have to take the side road we had just negotiated. The main track itself loops around and crosses the stream.
The High Road
In the distance we could see a track winding up the hill on the right. A similar one went to the left. Indeed, I think we drove down it a few years ago. I was certainly experiencing a bit of deja vu. This picture is mainly to show off the nice boulder though.
The Middle Road
It was clear that the right-hand high road was heading back to civilisation, and we weren't quite ready for that. So instead, we took the bumpy left hand turning, up another hill.
Interesting Feature
On the way up the track, which was very bumpy, we couldn't help but spy some sort of construction on the road opposite. I thought it was a water feature, whereas Alex thought it might be a bus stop. Now, you might think it is an odd place for a bus-stop, but there is a similar location near Kallepeia that does indeed have an old example.

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.
