        Not the “classical” hikes, but hiking in the rather undiscovered areas, no massa tourism, unspoiled and very beautiful!!! We all walked them ourselves.

  1. Hi to everybody.
    I would like to introduce you a new destination for great hiking you might not know very well yet, Cyprus, the island of the eastern Mediterranean! Not only the European Long Distance Path E4 but all the rest of the trails designed by the Forestry Department, will offer you amazing experiences.
    Why you don’t discover Cyprus on foot! check this website for all the hiking trails:
