Ammati Cave
Ammati Cave, and the little gorge it resides in, lie a stone's throw from Kallepeia. I have admired the area from afar for a number of years, but had yet to explore it. A friend tipped me off about the cave, so I decided to investigate...
Where Is It?

I don't normally start a blog off with a map, but the area is hard to find without it. If you drive into Kallepeia and past the main church, you should then take a right, and keep going that way. There are intermittent signs to the cave. They appear only at junctions where you need to divert from the bigger track. If you get to a junction and there is no sign, stay on the main track.
Park Here

If you head for the right location, you will probably drive past the cave by mistake. You will soon come to a green sign which contains a message in Greek. The sign says that if you hurt yourself on the walk the Municipality of Kallepeia will not be held responsible. So do this walk at your own risk.
Anyway, if you turn around as soon as you can and head back, you will soon arrive here. Park up on the slope.
Follow The Track Down

You can see where I parked. The track you need to take is the one in the forefront. Before you attempt the track, make sure you have decent footwear, and make sure you aren't carrying too much. The path ahead is fairly narrow and you may choose to hug the cliff as you walk it. I certainly did, as heights are not really my thing. I have to say though, that I have got better with them over the years...
Into The Valley

The path initially is fairly painless.
Safety Rope

Along the route there are these ropes. They don't exactly protect you from a fall, but are handy to hang on to on occasion.

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.
