The Salonica View team is organizing a one-day excursion and hike on the Tall Tree – Pouziaris trail.
A few words about our route:
Our group will start from Nicosia (Cyprus Handicraft Center) in the morning. Then, we will board with the first stop in Kofinou and then a stop in Limassol. Then we will make a stop for coffee and rest in Trimiklini. Then we will head towards the connection point of the Platres – Mesa Potamos forest road with the Moniatis – Platres – Troodos tourist road, near Tall Tree, where the starting point of our hike will be located. Our route will be circular and, reaching its highest points, we will enjoy beautiful panoramic views of the entire area. After the end of our hike we will go to the restaurant ''Psilo Dentro''(Tall Tree) in Platres for lunch, before returning back to Nicosia.
