Paphos - Old Venetian Camel Trail

The Old Venetian Camel Trail, passing south of Chryssorogiatissa Monastery, goes into some of the remoter parts of the island. The trip is only for the adventurous with a jeep.

Drivers will also need the government administration road map, the only one to show the trail.

There are three Venetian bridges on the route: Kelephos, Elea and Roudias further west. The bridges were built to enable pack animals, mainly camels, to cross the river when carrying copper from the Troodos mines to Paphos.

The trip takes about half-a-day, but is quite beautiful.
