Overview

The Salonica View team is organizing a hike in Kampos and the Lumberjacks' Path.

A few words about our hike:

We will start from Nicosia (Cyprus Handicraft Center) with the destination being the old forestry station - Selladi of Peter in Tsakistra. From there our hike will begin. Our first stop on our route will be Moutti of Papadias, an impressive viewpoint. Then we will reach the forest heritage museum located in Kampos. There we will make a short stop to see the museum. From the museum and after taking the necessary breaths we will hike on the Lumberjacks' Path. The path starts from the museum and we will end up in a duck park in Kampos. During our route, we will come across cherry trees and the church of Saint Kyriakos the Recluse. At the end of our hike, we will go for lunch in Kampos next to the river.
