Kannaviou Reservoir Overflows
Kannaviou Reservoir is the fourth biggest reservoir in Cyprus. It is situated at the top of the Ezousa Valley, below Pano Panagia. Last night it overflowed, which doesn't often happen, so we took our cameras along this morning to film it.
Kannaviou From Above
We took our drone with us this morning. It was very windy, as you can tell from the waves in this photo. You can see how full the reservoir is, but the actual overflow is to the right of this shot.
Towards The Overflow
If you visit the reservoir, there isn't really a lot to see with regards to the overflow. It is tucked away in the corner, out of view of pedestrians.
Drone View
Fortunately the drone can see what the eye cannot. Here is the overflow in all its glory. There is a film at the end that will show it in motion too.
Close Up
Here's a nice close-up shot. You can see the fence on the right that prevents pedestrians from getting too close.
At The Bottom
So lets follow the water as it escapes form the reservoir and enters the River Ezousa.

I took my drone up to Kannaviou Reservoir again last week, to practice film making. Unfortunately, I left the sim card at home. Fortunately the drone has some built-in storage so I was at least able to capture some rather nice photographs...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.
