Winter in Cyprus offers a host of breath-taking outdoor activities. Take a hike through the Troodos Mountains or Aphrodite Cultural Route or better yet, brave Mount Olympia and stand on top of snow-covered peaks while the sun shines down on your face. If the weather is a little cooler, visit one of several awe-inspiring monasteries, museums, and of course, enjoy the delicious Cyprian cuisine in top-quality traditional restaurants.
