Requires a good deal of stamina and a good head for heights. Views are brilliant but you have to walk up the mountainside to get them. Not for the feinthearted. Take a camera!!!!

In my view, the most spectacular of the three castles in the Kyenia area. The road up is quite hairy - a good surface but narrow in places and a sheer drop for some of the upward journey.

One of the 3 Great castles, 10 minutes from Kyrenia, well worth the climb
