Below Kritou Tera
Nice Dell
There might be a nice little trail along the stream here. I am not sure, but there did seem to be a bit of a track.
Take The High Road
Anyway, you should continue up the road. I won't say "we continued..." because we didn't. We actually found the destination via a completely different route. I am explaining to you the more sensible route. Driving through Skoulli can be a bit confusing, but as long as you stick to the high road at junctions you will be fine. If you end up back on the B7 you took a wrong turn.
Turn Left Here
So go left here, and continue up the hill. I often pick random routes on the way home from Paphos or Polis, just to see where we end up. There is more opportunity for adventure from the Polis end, it has to be said.
Dam Fine View
Believe it or not, in the distance you can see Evretou Dam. It is about an inch below the horizon in the middle of the picture. I love how well camoflagued the dams are in Cyprus. You wouldn't know it was there unless you knew exactly what you were looking at.
Time Wasters
Ah prickly pears. The fruit that promises so much yet delivers so little.

Evretou Dam
Ever since we explored the abandoned villages of Evretou and Trimithousa, we have been meaning to return and have a look at the rest of the reservoir. A chance wrong turn gave us just the opportunity we needed, so off we went. It took us a few visits to get the full picture of the reservoir, but we saw some lovely scenery along the way...Related Pages

A chance diversion from a scenic route home brought us to write this blog. This is what we love so much about Cyprus. You only need to take a left instead of a right, see where you end up, and take the time to have a look around. Adventure and wonder are just around the corner. And kittens.

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.
