St Anastasia Sulphur Spring
Published 25th of October, 2019
No Cars or Motorbikes
From this point forwards you have no option to walk. But that is what we are here for, so don't worry.
Interesting Rocks
One of the first things we noticed was the rocks far above us. There is a large vein of gypsum running here. We've seen the gypsum before, and knew it extended from around Amargeti to Stroumpi. In fact we had seen it near Theletra too. This is the first time we have seen it this far north though.
Nice Tree
Functioning Stream
The gorge has a stream running through it, which is still running in October, after the long hot summer. I should point out that we did this walk before the recent thunderstorms.
Easy Going
This is the quality of the path you will be walking on. In places the undergrowth is encroaching but there are no climbs or brambles to wade through.

If you have driven from Paphos to Polis along the B7, you will probably have smelled the Sulphur Springs around Miliou as you drove past. It is a bit challenging but is thankfully soon replaced by the smell of the orange orchards which make up most of the surrounding farmland.

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.
