In a few words

Discover the Akamas Peninsula , one of Cyprus 's most pristine natural areas, on a 3-night self-guided hiking trip . This accessible program takes you along a section of a route ranked among the island's top 5 hikes , through wild landscapes where coastal cliffs, panoramic trails, and protected nature intertwine.

Each day offers up to 6 km of walking , ideal for fully enjoying the panoramas without any technical difficulty. The trails wind between ridges overlooking the sea, Mediterranean scrubland and secluded coves , offering superb views of the unspoiled Akamas coastline.

The route also blends nature and local heritage . You will discover the medieval chapel of Agios Minas and stroll through the traditional village of Neo Chorio , known for its stone houses and authentic Cypriot architecture .

Accessible year-round , this trip is particularly enjoyable in spring, autumn, and winter , when temperatures are ideal for hiking. In summer, hikes are best done early in the morning or late in the afternoon to take advantage of the cooler temperatures.

An active and balanced stay combining gentle hiking, spectacular coastal panoramas and cultural immersion in one of the wildest regions of Cyprus.

The highlights

  • Stunning coastal views from altitudes of several hundred meters
  • A nature rich in biodiversity, largely preserved
  • A unique combination of walking and swimming in the sea
