Which Troodos village is best for a day trip from my town?
Omodos is a cobbled wine village with a monastery; Kakopetria has a medieval old town and trout tavernas; Kalopanayiotis has thermal springs and is a UN Best Village; Lofou and Lania are beautifully restored stone villages; Pedoulas is known for cherries; Fikardou is a near-abandoned protected monument. Choose by theme — wine, crafts, hiking or cool-in-summer — and by which town you are driving from.
