    Magnesium was mined here under British rule until the beginning of the 20th century.

    It's nice that the trail leads right past the remains. Interesting.

        In the evening, do not miss the sunset at the viewpoint Koutsagas: It is less than 1 km from the picnic area Smiegies. From the picnic area Smigies just follow the gravel road, direction Signpost Lara-STrand.Am first Bzwweiglinks hold, on the following right hold.Großartiger all-round view of the Akamas Peninsula, Larabucht, direction Paphos. The sun sinks into the sea from there. Also described by Müller Guide, Cyprus page 292.
