Droushia Rocks In Spring
Lovely Views
I have to say it was very windy when we visited, a few days ago. And also very cold. If you fancy a trip here, do wrap up warm.
Distant Chrysochou Bay
There are lots more rocky outcrops around here.
Snow-capped Mountains
In the far distance you can see snow on the Troodos Mountains. As I write this, there is likely to be a lot more there now. The weather has taken a turn for the colder, and we even had a flurry of snow in Polemi today!
Now remember I was talking about the shock I got on the way up here? Well, I was trying to find the Helmet on the way up, and saw something that was troubling.
False Alarm
I saw this rock, and thought that somebody had broken the helmet. It is actually a few yards away from it, but more visible from the road when I was looking. Now, you will recall at the start of the blog I showed you all that rubble. Well my first thought was that they had been doing some demolition work on the Helmet, for some unknown reason. So I was relieved to see it still intact.
So I am happy to report that Droushia Rocks are still all intact, and well worth a visit. Who knows, by tomorrow they may even be snow-capped?

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.
