Selladi tou Karamanli - Moutti tis Choras

The Selladi tou Karamanli – Moutti tis Choras Trail is a short but rewarding ridge walk on the Madari massif in central Cyprus, connecting two named viewpoints with sweeping panoramas over the central plain and surrounding peaks. Starting at the saddle of Selladi tou Karamanli, the route ascends gently along the exposed Madari ridge toward Moutti tis Choras (the Peak of the Capital), passing through a landscape of thin pines and windswept vegetation. The walk feels properly scenic for its modest distance, opening out views across Morphou Bay to the north and the broader Troodos range to the south. This is an excellent choice if you want a focused, high-altitude segment of the famous Madari ridge circuit, offering mountain character and significant visual reward without the full commitment of the longer circular walk.
