Lysos, Polis Villages

Fascinating, beautiful village, probably the best preserved in Paphos area. Lysos is set in a quiet rural area, with coffee shops and tavernas.  The tavernas serve inexpensive bar food, snacks and drinks. The villages of Polis and Latchi are approx. 8km away and the nearest beaches, which are quiet with few tourists, are a 15 minute drive. For more nightlife or shopping, Paphos town, with it's busy harbour, is just a 40 minute drive.
Lysos is located about 36 kilometres north-east of Pafos. It is the largest -with regard to territory -village of the Pafos district and covers a range of 9,526 hectares.
The village is built at an average altitude of 560 metres and it borders with the Nicosia district in the east. The village's highest point is "Tripylos" (1,362 metres), located in the most eastern section of the village, in the "Stavros tis Psokas" region. The community is crossed by the river of "Stavros tis Psokas" and the river of "Ezousa". The largest part of the village's territorial range is covered by forest and wild vegetation. These are the grounds were the Cyprus Mouflon and several rare birds live. There are remarkable Nature Trails in the region, the visitor being able to observe -unique in their kind -plants, birds, and reptiles. A forest police station has its headquarters in "Stavros tis Psokas" and there is also an amazing camping site. A similar site also exists in Agios Merkourios, not falling short in natural beauty.
