Service Description
This is a self-guided 21 km walk (6 - 7 hours - without breaks) on the ridge of Akamas peninsula, starting at a picturesque stone-build village Pickup times: 9:00 in Paphos More info This is the probably the ultimate walking route for those who want to see on the same day, much of the beautiful Akamas peninsula. It traverses the ridge of the peninsula and provides travellers with glorious vistas both of the west (Lara) coast and the north (east) coast (Bay of Chrysochou). The walk starts at the village of Drousheia, at an elevation of around 600 meters and goes north, all the way to the coast. It is found in a pristine, almost untouched by man, rich in biodiversity area of Cyprus. The trip also presents travellers with Drousheia village, one of the Laona well-preserved traditional stone-built village. Walkers may see many different plant species, many of them in bloom from February to May. The high point of the walk is probably a stop at Moutti Tis Sotiras peak, close to the north coast, from where the views are breathtaking. Walkers also pass by an abandoned monastery. The walk is finishes at Baths of Aphrodite cave. We recommend this walk outside summer, when temperatures would be excessively high for many travellers. We do present two other walking routes in the area, for those who want to do shorter walks (please see the 10 km Aphrodite-Adonis combo walk). Especially during summer, we recommend an even shorter walk: Aphrodite trail, which is 7.5 km long and can be walked in summer relatively comfortably, provided one starts early.

Return is assumed by frequent public bus 622 (daily almost every hour until 18:30) to Polis and Bus 645 to Paphos Karavella station. What's included?
