Vouni tou Lazarou is a modest hill that rewards hikers with one of the best panoramic views of Paphos and the surrounding coastline. The well-marked trail ascends through pine and scrub vegetation, leading to a summit where the entire city, the harbor, and the deep blue sea stretch out before you. It's a peaceful spot, ideal for a short hike or a picnic with a view. The hill's name, meaning 'Hill of Lazarus,' adds a touch of local legend. The trail is suitable for most fitness levels and offers a quick escape into nature just minutes from the city.
Don't miss
- Reach the summit for a 360-degree view of Paphos, the Mediterranean, and the Troodos Mountains
- Walk the circular trail through fragrant pine and wildflower-dotted scrubland
- Enjoy a quiet picnic at the top, especially at sunset when the light is golden
