Winter Waterfalls
Published 5th of January, 2019
Clean Cave
The Akoursos Cave was looking very spic and span. The rains had brought it up a treat. Our rock collections in the garden also benefit from the downpours.
Akoursos Gorge
This was our destination though. You can just make out a waterfall through the trees. I last visited this spot a couple of years ago while research for a blog. It was possible to climb the waterfall then. What about now?
Waterfall Approach
If you have boots, now would be a good time to put them on.
Shrine
I remember this shrine from my last visit. Nice to see it is still being looked after.
There She Blows!
Now that looks more like it. Surprising too, as the approach didn't seem to show that much water.

The Legend of Akoursos
Akoursos is a little village situated above Coral Bay, nestled in the hillside. It is off most people's radars and most visitors are probably tourists still searching in vain for the "suitable for all vehicles" road that will take them to Aphrodite's Water Baths. The other week we drove through there just so we could explore the hills behind it. While passing through, we couldn't help but notice a striking cave, embedded high up a cliff face. We decided to investigate...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.
