GOAT Adventures Cyprus Small Group Adventure & Walking tours - E4 Itinerary
🥾 Your 8-Day E4 Adventure
The Cyprus E4 Trail crosses some of the island's most spectacular landscapes, but not every section is created equal.
Over the years, Mark has explored the trail extensively, walking, camping and refining the route to create an adventure that showcases the very best of the Cyprus E4.
This isn't about completing every kilometre. It's about experiencing the most rewarding sections of the trail while enjoying authentic Cypriot hospitality, incredible scenery and the satisfaction that comes from earning every view.
📍 Day 1 – Welcome to Cyprus
Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at the airport before we head to Coral Bay, where you'll settle into your accommodation and meet the rest of the group.
The first evening is all about getting to know one another, chatting about the days ahead and sharing the excitement of the adventure that's about to begin.
Tomorrow, the walking starts.

📍 Day 2 – First Steps on the E4
After breakfast, it's time to lace up your boots and begin your E4 adventure.
Today's walk follows one of the most beautiful coastal sections of the trail as we make our way from Peyia towards Lara Bay. The Mediterranean is never far away, with dramatic cliffs, wild coastline and sweeping sea views accompanying us for much of the day.
It's a wonderful introduction to the E4 and a chance to settle into the rhythm of walking before enjoying a traditional Cypriot Souvla dinner together.
🥾 Walk: 16 km

🏨 Paphos
📍 Day 3 – Where the Wild Cyprus Begins
Today is the day Mark always looks forward to.
As we continue from Lara Bay towards the Baths of Aphrodite, the landscape begins to change. The eastern side of the Akamas offers stunning views towards St George's Island and Aphrodite's Rock, and it's common to exchange a friendly hello with other walkers.
Then something changes.
Once we pass Fontana Amorosa, the crowds disappear and the trail becomes wonderfully peaceful. It's often just us, the sound of the sea and, if we're lucky, a few curious wild goats watching from the hillsides.
We'll spend the night camping near the Baths of Aphrodite—a chance to experience the E4 in the way it was meant to be experienced.
🥾 Walk: 28 km

📍 Day 4 – Climbing Into the Hills
Today's walk leaves the coast behind as we climb towards Drouseia.
The scenery constantly changes, from rugged shoreline to rolling countryside, offering some of the most rewarding views of the entire adventure. On a clear day you can see all the way towards Paphos.
Although this is a challenging day, it's also one of the most satisfying. Reaching Drouseia feels like a genuine achievement, and you'll certainly have earned your dinner this evening.

📍 Day 5 – Rest, Stories & Traditions
After several demanding days on the trail, today gives both your legs and your mind a chance to recover.
We'll experience another side of Cyprus by visiting local producers, learning how traditional Halloumi cheese is made and sampling wines from one of our favourite family-run wineries.
This slower day reminds us that the E4 isn't only about walking—it's also about understanding the island you're travelling through.

📍 Day 6 – Into the Heart of the Paphos Forest
Today we leave the villages behind and venture deep into the wild beauty of the Paphos Forest as we walk Stage 8 of the Cyprus E4, from Lysos to Stavros tis Psokas.
This section of the trail feels completely different from the coastal paths you've already experienced. Towering pine trees, fresh mountain air and peaceful forest tracks create a real sense of wilderness, and it's not unusual to go long stretches without seeing another person. It's one of those walks where the sounds of nature replace the noise of everyday life.
Mark loves this stage because it reminds him just how diverse Cyprus really is. Many visitors never realise the island has landscapes like this, making it one of the hidden gems of the E4.
After completing the walk, we'll enjoy a relaxed BBQ dinner before spending the night camping beneath some of Cyprus' darkest skies.
🥾 Walk: 22.9 km

🏕 Accommodation: Camping at Stavros tis Psokas
📍 Day 7 – Walking Among the Cedars
Today brings the final walking stage of your E4 adventure as we follow Stage 9, from Stavros tis Psokas to Cedar Valley.
Although shorter than previous days, this section is no less rewarding. The trail winds through one of Cyprus' most unique landscapes, home to the rare Cyprus cedar trees that grow naturally only in these mountains. Surrounded by fresh mountain air and spectacular scenery, it's the perfect place to reflect on everything you've achieved throughout the week.
Mark chose this section to finish the adventure because it captures everything he loves about the E4—beautiful landscapes, peaceful surroundings and a real feeling of accomplishment.
After completing the walk, we'll return to Paphos to celebrate an incredible week together with a traditional Cypriot fish meze, sharing stories, laughter and memories from the trail.
🥾 Walk: 14.2 km
🍳 Breakfast
🍽 Farewell Fish Meze Dinner
🏨 Accommodation: Hotel in Paphos
📍 Day 8 – Until Next Time
After one final breakfast together, it's time to say goodbye—for now.
We'll transfer you to the airport, giving you time to reflect on everything you've experienced over the past eight days. From dramatic coastal paths and remote mountain forests to traditional villages and unforgettable evenings around the dinner table, you've walked some of the very best sections of the Cyprus E4.
We hope you'll leave with a real sense of achievement, unforgettable memories and a much deeper appreciation for the island we've been so proud to share with you.
This may be the end of the adventure, but we hope it's only the beginning of your relationship with Cyprus.

🌄 Why Mark Created This Adventure
The E4 crosses almost the entire island, but that doesn't mean every section offers the same experience. Over many years, Mark has explored, walked and camped along the trail, gradually discovering which sections truly capture the spirit of the E4. This adventure brings those favourite sections together into one unforgettable week. It's the route we'd recommend to our closest friends because it's the route we'd choose ourselves.
🤝 Want to Walk the E4 Privately?
If our scheduled dates don't suit you, this adventure is also available as a private experience for couples, families and groups of friends. We'll tailor the dates to suit you while keeping the same carefully planned route and personal GOAT Adventures experience.
