Day 1: Conquer the Cliffs and Catch the Sunset

Afternoon:
Our adventure begins in the scenic area of Ineia Rock Climbing Site in Paphos, where you’ll harness your strength and technique for an afternoon of rock climbing. Whether you’re a seasoned climber or new to the sport, this experience is designed to challenge and inspire you. With the guidance of expert instructors from Climb Hike Cyprus, you’ll scale impressive rock faces while taking in stunning surroundings.

Meeting Time: To maximize climbing time, we will be at the location close to the crag by 2:15 pm. We'll walk to the site together, do a brief introduction and group warm-up, and then help everyone with their gear. All necessary climbing equipment will be available on-site. Once set up, participants can start climbing on the pre-rigged top ropes.

Estimated Climbing Time: Climbing will take place roughly between 3 pm and 7 pm. As the day winds down, we’ll continue climbing, enjoying the vibrant hues of the setting sun. There’s nothing quite like reaching the top of a climb with the warm glow of a Mediterranean sunset as your reward.

Evening:
After the climb, we’ll retreat to a cozy hotel nestled in the forest, Paradiso Hills Hotel, where we’ll unwind and recharge for the next day’s adventure. This serene environment is perfect for relaxing your muscles and reflecting on the day’s achievements. Enjoy a hearty dinner, share stories with fellow athletes, and prepare for the hike ahead.

Day 2: Hiking Through the Heart of Akamas

Morning:
We’ll start our day with a nourishing breakfast, fueling up for the hiking adventure. We will pack and travel to our Starting Point & Parking Location. There we will be tackling the Aphrodite and Adonis Trail Loop. This is a 7.7-km loop trail at Akama Area, Paphos. Generally considered a moderately-hard challenging route, it takes an average of 2 hours 46 min to complete. This is a very popular area for hiking and running, so you'll likely encounter other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome but must be on a leash. Use the link to explore the trail in more detail (Explore Trail).

Midday:
Our hike will take us through the rugged yet stunning terrain of the Akamas Peninsula. The trail is challenging making it perfect for those looking to push their endurance while being rewarded with panoramic views of Paphos. As we traverse the trail, you’ll experience a variety of landscapes, from lush forests to open vistas, each offering a unique perspective on the natural beauty of the area. The hike will test your stamina and mental resilience, making it a true functional fitness experience with an elevation of 402 m. At the top of the trail (halfway through) we will have a break while enjoying the stunning view of Akamas Bay. The hike will finish at a beautiful beach, where you’ll have the chance to cool down with a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters. There’s no better way to end a challenging hike than by dipping into the sea, washing away the sweat and savouring the satisfaction of your accomplishment.

Lunch-Afternoon:
After our cool down, we will decide collectively for our Lunch Meal at a nearby place. After our Lunch break, we’ll head back to Larnaca, ending the two-day adventure.
