Troodos walking trip

The core of this walking trip is comprised of two complementary walks on the top of Cyprus: Artemis trail and Myllomeris Waterfalls trail. It usually takes upto five hous to complete these, excluding long stops (eg picnics, a dip in the natural pool in front of the waterfall etc). Both of the trails are lovely and together present a side of Cyprus that escapes most visitors. Artemis trail (8 km / 5 miles, flat and easy) is the highest elevation trail in Cyprus, and covered with unique flora. It is barren on many stretches and characterised by black pines and endemic Troodos junipers. Usually it offers excellent vistas to many parts of the island and to coasts from Limassol to Morphou bay. Myllomeris Waterfalls Trail ( 2.4 km / 1.5 mile, - 1.2 km each way, rather easy ) at an elevation of up to 1,000 m, offers a radically different environment. It has typical vegetation of Cyprus valleys such as alder trees, bracken, maple, golden oaks, strawberry trees, storax and plane trees with impressive roots. At eleven meters, Myllomeris Waterfalls is the tallest in Cyprus, and probably the most scenic. There is a small, very inviting natural pool in front of the waterfall. A few visitors take a dip, even outside summer, at times when the water temperature is rather cold. The combination of the two trails offers a rich experience over a high elevation range in Cyprus (1,000 to 2,000 meters). Being private, means that the trip can be customised, subject to customer profile, preferences and time availability.
