Caledonia Waterfalls

The water of the waterfall falls vertically from a height of 12 meters. According to the season, the surrounding area is covered in lush forest and native wild flowers. Avoiding the nature trail, some choose to walk through a shortcut from Aeodion road through the Psilo Dendro Trout Farm.[2] The trail can be followed from a parking area near the ‘Psilo Dendro’ (Tall Tree in Greek). Caledonia Falls can be enjoyed all year long, however, the rocky parts of the trail may be quite slippery after wet weather.[3][4] Hiking boots are recommended for crossing the river in wet weather or after snowfall.[5] Business Insider ranks the waterfall as the 14th Best waterfall in Europe.[6]

The waterfalls are the highest in elevation found on the island and are located about 2 km north of Pano Platres village.[7] The official starting point is 3km from Troodos square.[8] Some tourists visit the area by using the roadway towards the waterfall or following the nature trail on foot leading to it through Psilo Dendro.[9] The nature trail can take between 1.5 and 2.5 hours to walk. It is ranked as average (Level:3) in difficulty.[10] The trail can be used for either hiking or walking but is best used from March until October. Dogs are able to use this trail as well.[11][12]
