TROODOS MOUNTAINS
NATURE, CULTURE & VILLAGE LIFE IN TROODOS MOUNTAINS , THE HEART OF CYPRUS -
A LAND ROVER EXPEDITION FOR THE MOST DEMANDING OF INDIVIDUAL VISITORS.
We will take you, in a comfortable LAND ROVER, deep into the heart of the Island of Cyprus , to the Troodos Mountains. Here you can still find an unspoiled and intact land. The geological structure creates a colourful landscape called ‘Mikroklimata’.
Wide valleys, plateaus, rivers, varied flora and forests of pine and stone pine will impress you with their natural beauty. Through Cedar Valley the way leads us to Stavros tis Psokas where you will be able to view the wild mountain sheep called Moufflon. These animals became nearly extinct and are now a protected species. The historical past of Cyprus is also a companion to us on our way and our C.T.O. licensed guides will provide you with a deep insight into the history, nature, culture and everyday life of Cyprus .
The Kikko Monastery, wealthy and famous, is of great interest. Here nearby is also the tomb of Makarios III, a novice of this monastery who became the Archbishop and the first President of Cyprus. The village of Pedoulas is famous for its cherry blossom in Spring and for the church of the Archangel Michael. This church is a cultural treasure of the 15-century.
The silence of the wide valleys brings you a feeling of closeness to our origins. The cool air filled with herbal aromas invites you to partake of walks on the forest paths.
