Leave behind the craziness of the city and connect with unspoiled nature. We will take you to the green trail through a beautiful forest with thick, rich vegetation, where we will hike and enjoy amazing panoramic view points.
After approx. 2 hours hike in the forest we will get to an asphalted road which will lead us to a Agios Nikolaos Fountoukli church, dated back to 14th-15th century and the running spring water, where will have a short break to rest and have a glimpse of history in the old walls of the church.
Our return way will take us to the famous, abandoned, "Ghost Village" of Campochiaro (today: Eleousa) which after Italian occupation had finished has been turned into a Sanatorium specialised in respiratory problems treatments where we`ll see and explore the abandoned buildings of former market, prison and a church.
Another highlight of the tour will be nearby fish pond, where the extremely rare fresh water Gizani fish are kept.

Wonderful experience visiting an abandoned village of Statos in Paphos area near Moni Monastery
. Sad to see the buildings so broken with no one around except one person living there who seems to tend the gardens surrounding the church which appears to have been unaffected by the landslide years ago. Did not manage to gain access to the church. Wild flowers and birdlife so lovely. On leaving the village met a goatherd with his goats so presume he must also still reside in the village. Quite historical and lovely drive there.
