Access is from the old Larnaca/Limassol road, where there are
various parking opportunities within a few hundred meters of the
cache. The cache is hidden beside the nature trail, which is a 4km
pathway (mainly flat) skirting the salt lake, finishing in the
vicinity of the airport.
You can mix ‘n match Kamares, Hide ‘n Seek and
Artemis Paralia, finding them singly, in pairs or complete the 3
with a return trip of 8km which takes around 2 hours (on foot) plus
hunting time.
The Salt Lake Nature Trail from Kamares to Hide ‘n Seek is
a return trip of approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. The initial
few hundred metres is a fairly uninspiring walk with occasional
glimpses of the Salt Lake, but suddenly the views open out before
you. The sight of large flocks of flamingos wading in the salt
shallows during the rainy season is quite stunning. Cycling appears
to be popular and dogs are welcome to bring their well behaved
owners!
The beautiful 18th century aqueduct was built in 1745 by Pasha
Abu Bekr in the Roman style, to carry water from a source about 6
miles south of Larnaca into the town. It surfaces in a gully along
the highway to Limassol and was still in use until 1930. There are
more than 20 arches still intact; remnants of others can be found
to the south of the town.
