Mesa Potamos Falls
a small waterfall in the Troodos mountains next to a picnic area
Why go
The water drops over a 7-metre rock wall into a shallow, cool pool on the Arkolachanias river. A short downhill trail from the Mesa Potamos picnic area leads to it, and the Timios Prodromos Monastery is close by. The rock here is gabbro, and the picnic area has benches and barbecue spots.
Good for: families and anyone after an easy walk rather than a long hike
⚠️ Safety
Rocks around the pool and the wooden bridge are very slippery, so wear shoes with good grip. Do not climb the rocks or dive into the pool. In heavy winter rain the river rises quickly, so keep away from the bank.
