While life appears burdened with more and more hardships, isn’t it comforting that some things remain unchanged? Among them, elements which characterize the Cyprus Strollers as a unique hiking club:
Commitment to first-class planning and organization
Excursions alternate between Saturdays and Sundays, thus appealing to more people
Dedicated website, fully informed, and well in advance
Our caring, multinational character; we are open to Strollers of any nationality, both permanent residents, as well as visitors to the island
Well-chosen tavernas, serving us very good value meals at reasonable prices, because we honour them with our loyalty
Wit, humour and sparkle around the lunch table.
The Cyprus Strollers are committed to “Hiking made Pleasant”, and we invite you to contribute and enjoy the many rewards.
In 2024 the Cyprus Strollers are celebrating 10 years of weekly activity in Cyprus society. The distinguishing characteristic of the Cyprus Strollers is to combine hiking with communication, wit, humour, culture, caring; things that stimulate and nourish the soul and brain of each participant; with the intention that at the conclusion of the day every participant returns to base having 1st released the steam accumulated during the routine of the week just ended, and 2nd garnered sufficient stamina to help make it during the routine of the week coming.
To achieve it, we gather around the lunch table after hiking, where we talk in a more relaxed fashion. Our lunch conversations cover themes stemming from our collective interests, and many participants enjoy standing up and contributing their thoughts, ideas or simply impressions from the day. So much so that one can claim our lunches offer the rewards characteristic of a symposium.
The Cyprus Strollers is the only truly international club practicing hiking. Time and again, we have counted over 10 nationalities on a single walk. The significance of this is that it helps turn your activity into an experience far from the ordinary in your weekly routine. You meet and communicate with people from different backgrounds, and that’s broadening horizons.
In the 20 seasons, we have cumulatively walked more than 3100 km, over 990 hours. In terms of distance, 3100 km is equivalent to walking from Nicosia to Paphos and back 11 times. Thank you to every member for your contributions!

At last, what seemed to be a never-ending summer of unbearable situations, in Cyprus as well as around the world, is, hopefully, coming to an end. Heatwaves, forest fires, but also floods, wars, environmental disasters, and also an escalating cost of living. Aspects of life turning anyone mad.
In this climate of uncertainty and anxiety, the Cyprus Strollers emerge as a pillar of stability. This Club is entering its 19th consecutive season, promising participants a breath of fresh air, once a week and much more than a hike.

At 15:30 hours, in front of Chrysaliniotissa garden (http://tinyurl.com/nma87ea), on Orthodox Good Friday 14 April, we set off to visit and venerate the Epitaphios in 8 churches in Nicosia Within the Walls. No need for registrations. E-mail Xenophon if you need more detail.
Our hike on Saturday 8 April was along one of those routes that had it all. The first part – all uphill with quite a few strenuous steps – took us to the most popular waterfall in Cyprus, then through the dense and enchanting forest, crossing a stream at several points. This was the time to watch your step, breathe in the fresh forest air, connect with nature, and at some points feel the burn in your legs. At the top end of the Caledonia trail, we shifted to the Pouziaris trail, the perfect counterbalance. Mostly wide dirt roads led us downhill easily, offering some amazing views of the land and villages below. The gentle terrain was an invitation to walk side by side, chat with fellow Strollers… and start thinking of the nice lunch that awaited us at the end of this multifaceted hiking experience. As always, abundant food, drink and conversation mixed well in our group of many nations, ages and languages, making this a wonderful get together before the Easter break. Compliments to Dina for this lovely summary.
At last, what seemed to be a never-ending heatwave over Cyprus, is coming to an end. At the same time, an end does not appear concerning a war involving an entire continent, an escalating cost of living, an environmental crisis and a looming energy shortage. Aspects of life turning anyone mad.
In this climate of uncertainty and anxiety, the Cyprus Strollers emerge as a pillar of stability. This Club is entering its 17th consecutive season, promising participants a breath of fresh air, once a week. Join us to experience the ingredients which set the Cyprus Stroller apart, become part of ‘Hiking made Pleasant’.
