Description

This branch of the Evangelistria route heads west towards the northern headland of Katapola bay. The clear path crosses a coastal area with low, sparse vegetation.

It first skirts the area of Kapparia, which preserves traces of the old rural landscape along with the remains of early Christian buildings near the shore, before ending at the picturesque chapel of the Prophet Elias and its historic lighthouse.
