Village Route 1 – Central and Western Limassol District

There are many sites to visit and rich natural beauty on this village route, which will take you through the «Krasochoria» (wine producing villages) of cyprus. You do not have to stop at every village or visit every site listed in the Guide. (You may send us an e-mail and we can post one out to you or see the list outlets where you may pick one up from). You can choose to visit some highlights and stop in other places for food or drinks. You should not miss the «Oleastro Olive Park», especially if you have children with you, the «Pera Pedi», where you can enjoy a walk by the river to the old village, the stunning scenery on the road from Arsos to Agios Nicolaos, the Kolossis Castle, Headquarters of the Crusader Knights of St. John Hospitaller, the Erimi Wine Museum and the Akrotiri Peninsula with its’ salt lake, which in the spring and autumn hosts more than 260 species of migratory birds. Please be advised that the prices and opening hours listed in the guide may change. To avoid disappointment (particularly during the pruning and harvesting time) do call ahead of time if the guide indicates that you need to need to pre-arrange your visit to a site.
