Descripción

A walk that will take you round the areas north of the village of Lefkos. The first part (if you walk counterclockwise) will be through forested areas where Papamoscas Gris, good amounts of Tórtola Europea, along with the all present Curruca Cabecinegra can be seen.

On the northern side of the area (just before the landscape opens up), there is a drinking trough for the goats. It's worth stopping there for a while, as quite a few birds tend to gather.

On the western parts the landscape opens up with bush- and grassland, surrounded by the cliffs and ridges. Here Halcón de Eleonora, Collalba Rubia, Roquero Solitario and Alcaudón Común can be seen. At the crossroad towards the nudist beach there was seen a family of Curruca mirlona oriental.

The walk ends down a gorge and the remarkable sandstone cliffs along the coast. Finish your walk with a coffee and some of his marvelous bakings at the village baker - The Muffin man, driven by the friendly Nikos.

Accesso

The circular route shown on the map is about 7 km. Along the eastern side of the route there is a house with some dogs (not at a leash when I passed, but they seemed quite cool).

Along the western side there is a farm with plenty of dogs, from what I could see all but one in cages, neither this one caused any problems.
