Pano Akourdaleia Nature Trail
Published 22nd of December, 2022
Climbing Down
A fairly steep descent over large rocks brought me to the hole the sign mentioned. The water pipe destroys the ambiance a bit but it still looks pretty cool.
Mill Remains
And below the hole, this wall is all that remains of the mill.
Where To Now?
In this drone picture you can see the shelter again. The mill is directly to the right of it, at the bottom of the rocks. You can follow the path beyond the shelter and it seems to be descending into the valley. This is what we want! Will it lead us to a mysterious gorge?
Overgrown
From here on in, long trousers and a pair of secateurs are a good investment. The track gets narrower and more overgrown.
Jerusalem Sage - Number 25
This was the last sign I found - number 25. Remember this number. It will be relevent later.

Arnies Nature Trail
Yesterday, for the first time since March, we drove somewhere in order to have a walk. It was magnificant! We didn't drive far, just down the road. There is a nature trail which we walked before Christmas, and we thought it was the perfect place to start reacquainting ourselves with the Cyprus countryside.Related Pages

This year I've spend a fair bit of time exploring the countryside around Akourdaleia. It fascinates me, partly because of its staggering beauty, and partly because it is unknown to most people. A huge gorge runs between it and Kritou Tera, yet it is invisible from any of the main roads. While investigating this gorge, I came across a Nature Trail I hadn't heard of before. So come with me as I explore it.

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.
