Salamiou is a paragliding site located in the western foothills, ideal for intermediate to advanced pilots. The site is occasionally used and offers thermal soaring opportunities with the possibility of top landing. The launch site is situated at the peak of the highest hill southwest of the village of Salamiou. It faces westerly into a small ravine and is characterized by a steep drop, making it easy to get away from. The launch area is narrow, with pine trees on both sides, and can be affected by crosswinds. Wind indicators are recommended to ensure safe takeoff conditions. The vertical distance to the landing zone (LZ) is approximately 400 meters. There are many emergency landing zones available, and the valley below is largely free of trees and dense vegetation, providing multiple landing options. The river plain is wide and open but can be rough with rocks and small bushes. Thermic turbulence may affect landings, especially in the river plain. To reach the launch site, drive to the village of Salamiou. Once in the village, follow the narrow concrete road that turns into a dirt road, passing two large concrete water tanks. The road will split; take the right fork to reach the fields at the top. The launch site is a short 100-meter walk from the parking area. For landing, drive back to the fork above the water tanks and take the right turn down to the valley. This road can also be accessed from the highway before reaching the village. The preferred LZ is about half a kilometer upstream from this road. For more information, visit [Cyprus Fly Adventures](https://www.cyprusflyadventures.com/).
