On Saturday, 25 July 2026, the Run The Weekend crew trades its usual urban routes for the heights of the Troodos massif, leading a group hike along the celebrated Artemis Trail. The route is a circular 8 km loop that winds through dense pine forest and open ridgelines, offering some of the most rewarding scenery the island has to offer at altitude. With an estimated duration of around two hours and a relaxed pace, the hike is well-suited to participants of all fitness levels — seasoned trail runners and first-time hikers alike.
The event is deliberately inclusive: friends and family are warmly encouraged to join, and the atmosphere is social rather than competitive. For those travelling from further afield, organisers plan to arrange a coach from Páfos, provided enough interest is registered — a practical detail worth noting when planning your day.
Once the trail is done, the group reconvenes at a picnic area in Troodos for an unhurried afternoon of relaxation, outdoor games and shared food. It is this combination of physical activity and communal downtime that gives the outing its particular appeal — less a workout, more a proper day out in the mountains. A full schedule is available from the organisers.
