Arnies Nature Trail
Thistles
Next in queue to bloom, we have the humble thistle. Soon these will be a sea of purple.
The Ezousa River
The nature trail skirts the side of a small portion of the Ezousa Valley. You can see in the distance where the winter rains have cut a grey trail through the green landscape. You can drive along the valley floor, on numerous farm tracks. It is heavy going at times but if you like off-roading it is worth a look.
New Church?
It looks like there is a new building further along the valley. I would imagine it is a church.
Distant Choulou
On the other side of the valley I can make out another village. I am guessing it is Choulou, though the hill to the right of it doesn't look very familiar from this angle.
Continue along here. We will soon be at the short / long route junction. If you found the track a bit heavy going on the way down, stick to the short route. The long route goes a bit further down the valley then comes up a very rough path that is probably overgrown at the moment.

MapArnies 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.

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.
