The story

The Atalante trail starts and ends at Troodos Square. It is a 14-kilometer loop around Chionistra, at 1,700 to 1,750 meters. That’s lower than the Artemis trail. Its difficulty is the second category of three. Three kilometers from the start, there’s a fountain with drinking water. In this forest you may meet a mouflon, the wild mountain sheep of Cyprus.
