Kalidonia ( Caledonia ) Waterfalls Troodos - Platres - Cyprus
my point of view from Kalidonia Waterfalls in Troodos
Caledonia Waterfalls (Kalidonia) near Platres, Troodos, Cyprus
Caledonia Waterfalls are located in Platres village in Troodos. This beautiful waterfall is one of the highest located in Cyprus and is surrounded by forest and it is most popular in summer, when it offers a cool and shady retreat from the powerful midday sun.
The trail has a length of 3 km and can be divided into 2 parts, the higher one that leads to the waterfalls, and the lower one, from the waterfalls to Platres. The route might be difficult due to the sudden changes in gradient, but it is quite easy with decent shoes. The route is suitable for adults in good fitness levels. Unsuitable for very young children. If you do not wish to take the long nature walk path there is an easy access by foot straight to the main waterfall (about 20 minutes walk) from Aedonion road, by the trout farm in Pano Platres.
On the route you will observe many species of the local flora. Relax and enjoy the natural sound of the wind on the tree leaves and the sweet bird singing. It is worth noting that the name Caledonia Falls originates from the swallow birds singing during spring and summer evenings.

Caledonia Falls, Cyprus
Hiking down the trail from Caledonia falls, Platres, Lemesos district, Cyprus. This trail is an easy hike, both going up and coming down. Any one can do it. It's about an hour hike each way if you stop at the foot of the waterfall. You could also continue to the top of the waterfall for another 20 minutes. There were hardly any hikers on the trail and that made the hike very pleasant since this is not a big area that can contain many people without getting spoiled. So time your hike early in the day, start before 10 am, and try to be there off season. This is the water flow in September, after it rained the previous day.

The most famous waterfall of the lot, this claims a proud spot, at an altitude of 1330m north of Pano Platres village, with the water falling from a height of 13 meters. Luring thousands of visitors year in and year out, prepare for a walk like no other as the gushing sound of water through dense forest vegetation leads you towards the waterfall.
But this place isn’t just about the final destination; there’s something special about the walk to the falls itself, as you stride or trundle over slippery stepping stones and bend over backwards to make way past foliage that so proudly inhabits every inch of the vicinity as sweet scented pine trees so gloriously call out for attention.
What many don’t know, is that the falls supposedly got their name from Scottish visitors years ago who were rather taken by the beauty of the place, saying that it reminded them of their own country, called Caledonia in ancient times. The rest, is history!

A leisurely hike along the nature trail from the Psilon Dentron point near Platres to the Kaledonia Falls. Then a refreshing dip in the Falls themselves. Even though it was mid August the water was icy cold.

Caledonia waterfall trail - Cyprus
Subtitles in EN & GR - Υπότιτλοι στα ελληνικά και αγγλικά
Caledonia Waterfalls are the highest located in Cyprus.
The name Caledonia Falls originates from the swallow birds singing during spring and summer evenings.
It is surrounded by forest and it is most popular in summer, when it offers a cool and shady retreat from the powerful midday sun.
Οι Καταρράκτες των Καληδονίων είναι οι υψηλότεροι που βρίσκονται στην Κύπρο. Το όνομα Καληδόνια προέρχεται από τα χελιδόνια που τραγουδούν τα βράδια κατά τη διάρκεια της άνοιξης και του καλοκαιριού.
Περιβάλλεται από δάσος και είναι πολύ δημοφιλής τόπος το καλοκαίρι γιατί προσφέρει ένα δροσερό και σκιερό καταφύγιο από το μεσημεριανό ήλιο.

Top Cyprus Walk - Artemis and Caledonia Waterfalls
Rock and Water
This is literally our top Cyprus walk, as it is composed of two trails, one of which (Artemis trail) is the Cyprus trail with the highest elevation (1,800 meters). Artemis trail is circular and has a length of seven km. Walkers pass by many pines and junipers.
Explorers see barren rock at the top, while walking next to cliffs at points. I recommend that one does the trail (also) closer to summer, since because of the high elevation, flowers tend to be in bloom later in the season, compared to the same species in lower elevation.
The linear Caledonia (or 'Kalidonia') waterfall trail is very different to Artemis. It runs next to a stream, and naturally the flora and fauna is very different (and richer).
With a length of just three kilometers, it is quite steep (one needs to be very careful), and crosses the stream at points. One may possibly hear many songbirds (especially towards summer), though it is rather difficult to spot them. About midway one comes to Caledonia Waterfall, a major natural attraction in the area.
The water quantity is not significant, but the setting is nevertheless idyllic. The trail finishes in Platres village.
The combination of these two trails makes a perfect getaway for those interested to explore Top Cyprus.

Second time attempting the hike. Didn't complete it; instead played in the water.
Adonis baths and waterfalls, one of the most beautiful places in Cyprus
Hello every one! Another amazing place that you have to visit, if you find yourself in Cyprus. Adonis baths and waterfalls near Paphos Cyprus. I traveled with my motorcycle from Nicosia around 3 hours to go and 3 hours back. There is and little off road but the place really is worthy. One of the most beautiful places in Cyprus. Adonis museum, many statues of Aphrodite, Adonis, Zeus, Athena.
