Paphos Forest is one of Cyprus's largest and most spectacular woodlands, sprawling across the northwestern slopes of the Troodos Mountains. Reached by winding mountain roads through quaint villages, it rewards visitors with picturesque landscapes, cool pine- and cedar-scented air and sweeping panoramic views. Nature trails suit all fitness levels, from gentle forest walks to longer treks, with the endemic Cyprus cedar of Cedar Valley among its signature sights.
Reviewers describe it as amazingly atmospheric, quiet and creative-feeling, perfect for hiking, photography or simply escaping the busy coastal tourist areas. The terrain is wonderfully varied and the scenery keeps you entertained for hours, though some forest roads are rough and a few stretches are best tackled with a 4x4. Bring water, sturdy shoes and a full tank, as facilities are limited.
Whether you come for a scenic drive, a daylong hike or a peaceful nature retreat, Paphos Forest offers a rare taste of wild, unspoiled Cyprus far from the crowds. Spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons to visit.
