Troodos, Mountain community in Limassol District, Cyprus.

Troodos encompasses the central highlands of Cyprus with elevations exceeding 1,800 meters, featuring dense forests of pine and cedar trees that support diverse wildlife populations.

The area has been inhabited since Neolithic times and served as a refuge for Byzantine monks who established numerous monasteries and spiritual centers within the mountains.

Local artisans continue Cypriot traditions by producing handwoven textiles, pottery, and wooden crafts that are distinctive to this mountainous region of the island.

Access is provided via the main Nicosia-Limassol highway and winding mountain roads through small villages, with accommodations available in Platres, Kakopetria, and Prodromos.

The cool climate enables winter skiing at Troodos Ski Resort, a rare phenomenon on this typically warm Mediterranean island destination.
