O que fazer em Troodos Mountains
The Troodos Mountains are another Cyprus. Here, the traditional ways of life still hold sway in the sleepy stone villages that dot the tree-clad valleys. What’s more, these highlands are the spiritual heart of the island. Monasteries such as those of Kykkos, Chrysoroyiatissa and St John Lampadistis attract both the faithful and the curious. And the region’s painted Byzantine churches are so rare and precious that they’re a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
You can expect luxuriant landscapes and cooler climes, which offer a pleasing contrast to the coast. There are iconic landmarks such as the medieval Tzelefos Bridge, romantic vineyards such as those in the southern slopes and timeworn villages where they still make artisan products. The villages of the Troodos Mountains are the sort of places where you still find old men playing backgammon in coffee shops and old ladies knitting outside their doors.
There’s so much to see and discover, to sample and savour, that the best way to get a snapshot of this fascinating is a guided tour from one of the coastal areas. Most of these excursions visit the top attractions, such as the UNESCO-listed churches and the monasteries, along with wineries.

“The driver was really knowledgeable and informative...we learnt a lot of interesting things. However, the 4x4 was really rough, sitting in the back was uncomfortable and it was difficult to see out of the windows because the seats faced each other rather than forwards. The driver asked us to swap seats but 2 people were unable to do so, so much of the tour was difficult to see. The driver was fast..and possibly unsafe...way over the speed limit and seemed to be showing off along dirt roads.”
“The tour was too strenuous not enough information given on how hard the walking would be. Tour guide was hard to understand due to very strong accent.”
“We were not warned about how wet we would get and we got soaked in torrential rain. Our guide was aware of the weather as she got her plastic mac out to wear whereas all the group were drenched from head to toe. In future the offer should encourage people to take wet weather gear”
