“Visitors to Paphos will now be able to enjoy, even more, the exciting experience of upgraded cycling as part of their holiday in Paphos, as a magical destination for activities, adventure and professional training.”
As soon as conditions allow, due to the coronavirus restrictions, they will commence installing signs and parking spaces. The plan for the promotion and notification of these new routes and promoting cycling tourism through specialised channels is, ‘in full readiness for implementation,’ they said.
Among other actions, the programme will promote cycling on social media, sports content platforms, and direct contacts with cycling clubs abroad and specialised travel agents, use of world-class apps and so on, they said.
