Winter Water Features
Published 4th of January, 2020
Trozena Waterfall
And so to the waterfall itself. I should point out that it doesn't normally flow at all, so any water is a bit of a sight.
Last Winter
However, it has not yet reached the scale and majesty of last winter, which you can see here.
Need More Rain
If we get much more rain, this becomes an essential place to visit which very few people actually bother to see. This is a shame, as it is worth a journey to hear the sound of the falls alone.
Trozena Water Feature
While we were here we also checked out the village of Trozena itself. Last year, this area was flooded. Since then a lot of clearing has been done, and there is a lot less vegetation about. What I loved about this water feature were the autumnal leaves below the surface of the water. They don't really photograph that well but look stunning when you are standing there.
Last Winter
As I said, last winter the area was flooded, and I had to make lots of macho splashes for the camera.

The Asprokremmos Dam is due to overflow any time now, and the vendors are already setting up stall in anticipation. For many people this will be the beginning and their end of their water-based sight-seeing tour.

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.
