Πριν ξεκινήσετε

• Carry at least 1.5 litres of water per person and a hat; there is little shade on many Cyprus trails from May to October.
• Start early in summer and avoid the hottest hours (12:00–16:00).
• Wear proper walking shoes: paths are often stony and steep in places.
• This is a demanding route: allow extra time and don't walk it alone if you're not used to mountain paths.
• Οι διαδρομές μπορεί να κλείσουν μετά από πυρκαγιές ή καταιγίδες. Ελέγξτε την επίσημη σελίδα για την τελευταία ενημέρωση.
