The go-to Cyprus walking guide for discovering the best walks and car tours.
Strap on your boots and discover Cyprus on foot with the Sunflower Cyprus travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours.
The Sunflower Cyprus walking guide is indispensable for hiking in Cyprus or seeing Cyprus by car. Walking in Southern Cyprus or exploring Cyprus by car is an experience to treasure for a lifetime - or, as the Cypriots put it, 'Once been, never forgotten'. You can stroll for miles along the southeast coast or hike through the woods in the famous Troodos Mountains (stopping for lunch at one of the trout farms). But in recent years most walkers are exploring the 'far west' - the Akamas Peninsula, now a nature reserve, where the Tourism Organisation has established some fine nature trails. In all, there are 52 nature trails on the island, some short and easy, others very demanding.
Area covered: Greek (southern) Cyprus; North Cyprus is not included, except on the touring map (where place names are shown in Turkish). (Sunflower has a separate guide for North Cyprus.) Cyprus is a large island; the drives and walks radiate from three main bases: Pafos (Paphos), Lemesos (Limassol) and Larnaka (Larnaca). Whatever your age or ability we've got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in Cyprus.
Inside the Sunflower Cyprus guide book you'll find:
65 long and short walks for all ages and abilities - each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walk
Topographical walking maps - give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrain
Free downloadable gps tracks - for the techies
Satnav guidance to walk starts for motorists
7 car tours and fold-out touring map - for easy reference on your tour
Strolls to idyllic picnic spots - enjoy our recommendations for where to picnic along the way
Timetables for public transport - ideal if you want to link two walks or avoid hiring a car on your holiday
Online update service for the latest information
Town plans of Lefkosia, Pafos, Lemessos, Larnaka, Ayia Napa are included
Whether you tour the region by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Since 1983 people out walking in sunny climes have been relying on our 'little blue books' to follow the trails - and to make friends with other walkers. Sunflower started by exploring the Atlantic Islands, but has branched out: we still love islands - from the Azores to Zakynthos - but we cover many mainland destinations too, like land-locked Switzerland and the coastal Basque Country. All our guides have the familiar mix of car tours, walks and picnics. More recently, we introduced restaurants and recipes in our 'Walk & Eat' series, which explores around cities from Stockholm to Avignon.
