Vournia Nature Trail

After the excesses of Christmas we thought a few brisk walks were in order. If you are not used to exercise, then you should start gently. Fortunately, in Kallepeia, there is a Nature Trail that is only 1.5km long and a perfect way to ease yourself back into shape.

Avakas Gorge

For some time I have been fascinated with exploring gorges in Cyprus, and have brought you reports of various nooks and crannies throughout the island. For various reasons I have yet to give you a tour of the Grand Daddy of them all, but a recent visit from my brother inspired me to take him on a trip up Avakas Gorge and give you a report on the full trail.

The Paphos To Chloraka Walkway

A couple of weeks ago I tried doing the new Coast Walk from the Castle to Venus Beach, but was unable to do so because of the ongoing renovation work. After reports floated down that the work was complete, I decided to give it another go. This time I make it all the way to Chloraka, though I did have to go off piste a couple of times.

The Ezousa River carves a path through the Paphos countryside from Kannaviou down to Acheleia, entering the sea by Paphos Airport.

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.

If you have driven from Paphos to Polis along the B7, you will probably have smelled the Sulphur Springs around Miliou as you drove past.

When we we visiting the area a few days ago, we spotted a ramblers' sign pointing to the spring, so naturally we stopped to investigate...
