Length: 1,2km - Linear
Estimated duration: 30 minutes
Difficulty rate: 3
Starting point: Between Platres church (Faneromenis Church) and Platres center.
You can also get to the waterfall by car through a dirt road from the main road Platres - Limassol about 1 km. after Tall Tree (Psilo Dendro), but you will miss all the beauty this trail has to offer.
The trail goes downhill through dense flora. The first half of the trail is parallel to Krios (Cold) River and before the final section, after a short uphill, it leads to an opening with breath-taking mountain views to the south.
It's been said that the waterfall got its name from the words “millos” which means wet in the Cypriot dialect and the word “meros” which means place. This is because its located in a spot that doesn't get any sun, keeping it always a "wet place". A few years back, the access towards the waterfall wasn't accessible, until the nature trail and road were developed.
Millomeris waterfall is 15 meters high, making it one of the highest natural waterfalls in Cyprus. A fantastic destination for hikers and nature lovers!
