A quiet road from the coast to the village of Kathikas.
Venom is in the village of Akoursos where a beautiful series of hairpin bends winds through the village.
The 14％ is tapped here.

In the village, very friendly people and a nice little bar with real Cyprus coffee.

Great climb. Virtually no traffic on the old road to Kathikas. Asphalt is more than fine. Most of the climb is a runner until you get to the village. From there it is 2 kilometres of hard work before you arrive in the village of Kathikas. Great views along the way.
