For those who want to be part of the trail race weekend but are not ready to run an ultra, we offer the 25km 'Fun Run'.

The route will follow the last 25km of the Extreme event, starting at the Adventure Mountain Park in Kyperounda, following the trails up to the top of Mt Olympus (Shionistra) and ending at the Jubilee Hotel.

The elevation gain is 1,122 meters and the race includes the tough 9km climb from Platania picnic area up the E4 to the Troodos area.

Play it Safe

​While the name of this event gives the impression that it is an easy run that can be treated casually, the opposite is true.

It involves very tough climbing in remote areas, where things can go badly wrong for an unprepared runner, especially if the weather turns foul.

We recommend that you carry the following items:

  • Hydration pack/water bottles with capacity to carry 1l of water

  • Cup/bottle for other drinks (we are a cupless race)

  • Whistle

  • Working, charged cellphone

  • GPS navigation device (watch, phone)

  • Waterproof jacket with hood

  • Basic medical kit

  • Additional food/gels/electrolytes

  • Gloves Hat/Headwear

  • Long-sleeve top

  •  long tights layer.

NOTE -- Details of the checkpoints and feeding stations, as well as race markings are the same as for the Extreme runners.

The Sea-to-Sky Cyprus trail came into being in 2021 as a challenging 135km trail running race organised by Cyprus Trail Runners, starting on the beach at Alaminos on the south coast and finishing in the Troodos mountains. It is now no longer a race, but this beautiful route can still be experienced by trail runners or hikers: over one day, several days, one week, or two weeks, as you prefer. Fast or slow, supported or unsupported, camping or comfort, do the whole route or just a section.
Your adventure, your distance, your pace, your way.
