rent a car<\/a> and check the below spots out!<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]1. The Stunning Seaside Rendezvous<\/strong>
\nAyii Anagyri Picnic Site, Cape Greco National Forest Park, Ayia Napa<\/strong><\/span>
\nIf there was ever a picnic site to be handed a gold medal for its spectacular sea views, it has simply got to be this one. With dreamy turquoise waters befriending the dramatic rocky coastline, you\u2019d imagine this is the spot where poets are struck with inspiration and artists get that brush stroke going with manic fervour. If you fancy painting, doodling, writing, or even, just having a sit down to gaze out at the panoramic view post-picnic, there really is no better place to do so.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4040″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]2. A City Escape<\/strong>
\nAthalassa Park Picnic Site, Aglandjia, Nicosia district<\/strong><\/span>
\nIt\u2019s not often that you get to experience such tranquillity on the outskirts of a city, so if you\u2019ve got to stay in the capital, then you quite simply must make a day of it in Athalassa park. With much to excite nature lovers who yearn for a little respite from city life, there\u2019s even a gorgeous lake to ogle at, while age old eucalyptus trees gracefully reach for the skies. One part of the park even boasts a children\u2019s playground and a kiosk.\u00a0What\u2019s more, there\u2019s a great tarmac walking and cycle route in the vicinity, and plenty of benches to stop to catch your breath along the way. Although the park does get very busy on Green Monday, there are all different sections of the park which sprawl across a pretty vast area so you\u2019re bound to find a spot to call your own.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4041″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]3.\u00a0 Wilderness Tips<\/strong>
\nStavros tis Psokas Picnic Site, Paphos Forest<\/strong><\/span>
\nIf you love remote spots, then this place is to die for. Smack bang in the heart of the Paphos forest, you\u2019ll feel like you\u2019ve entered a real wonderland where scented pines reign supreme. If you do head here, you can work up an appetite beforehand with some great nature trails in the surrounding area that will get your heart racing. And if you\u2019re looking for more of the wow factor, the Cedar Valley isn\u2019t too far, so just hop in your car and enjoy a scenic ride towards one of the island\u2019s prettiest spots. Do have your camera at the ready- you\u2019ll regret it if you don\u2019t![\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4042″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]4. Waterside Bliss<\/strong>
\nXyliatos Picnic Site, Xyliatos\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\nEver enjoyed a walk around Xyliatos dam? If you have, you\u2019ll be able to excuse our wild enthusiasm as glistening waters reflect the vibrant green surroundings, perfectly setting the scene for the most wonderful (and rather romantic) picnic experience.\u00a0 Situated on the Peristerona \u2013 Xyliatos \u2013 Lagoudera road, 17 km from Peristerona, the idyllic picnic site is a stone\u2019s throw away from the dam itself.
\nWith all amenities on site and some covered barbeque areas, there\u2019s also a lovely nature trail to follow which starts off at the picnic site and takes you on a lovely 4.5 kilometre route around the dam.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4043″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]5. Rural\u00a0 Rambles\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>
\nKornos picnic site, Larnaca district<\/strong><\/span>
\nJust two kilometres outside the pretty little village of Kornos (situated in between Larnaca and Nicosia) the site is the perfect spot to tuck into your\u00a0picnic goodies before you embark on an exploration of the area. The village itself is a nice place to go for a walk, characterised by traditional folk architecture and renowned for its pottery. Once your feet tire, take a drive on the winding uphill road towards the stunning Stavrovouni Monastery, dramatically perched high on a cliff top and commanding breath-taking views of the entire area.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”4044″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Via My Cyprus Insider<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Love a good picnic in the great outdoors?
