About this experience
I invite you to one of the most interesting and beautiful places in Cyprus - the Troodos National Park. You will feel the refreshing mountain coolness and walk through the forest to the waterfall, inhaling the magical scents of cedar and pine trees. You will also visit ancient settlements with traditional lifestyle, stop by a family winery, and visit a glassblower's workshop.
What to Expect
Charming Local Villages
Omodos will enchant you with its authentic Cypriot village charm, developed winemaking, and the ancient Monastery of the Holy Cross. And the village of Platres will amaze you with the beauty of the mountain landscapes and British architecture. Additionally, you will visit a wine museum, taste local drinks and sweets, get acquainted with rural crafts, and visit the glassblower's workshop - a successor of Venetian traditions.
Walk along the picturesque Caledonia Trail
The rocky trail through dense forest along the river will reveal the peculiarities of local flora and fauna and lead to the Caledonia waterfall. Located at an altitude of 1200 meters above sea level, it is considered one of the most beautiful places in Cyprus.
