The Kyprianades Waterfall is located in a beautiful green environment near the tiny village of Kyprianades in northern Corfu. With a height of 8 meters, it is the second-largest waterfall on the island, after the Nymphes Waterfall. The water stream is called the Klimatia and is a tributary to the Tyflos River (Blind River), which flows into the sea near Sidari.
Visiting The Kyprianades Waterfall
The Kyprianades Waterfall can be visited for free and has no particular opening times. However, you might be surprised to see no water flowing if you visit the waterfall in summer. Although Corfu sees lots of rain throughout the year, summers are usually hot and dry and in recent years extended periods of drought have caused the waterfall to shrink significantly or even dry up completely in the summer. So the best time to visit the waterfall is in the spring or fall.
How To Get To The Kyprianades Waterfall
The Kyprianades Waterfall is situated in a dense forest, just outside the village of Kyprianades, and can be reached by foot, with your own transportation like a rental car or scooter, or with an organized tour. There is no public transportation to the waterfall.
From the village, you can either take a shortcut by foot or make a small detour by car to get a bit closer. By car, depart from Kyprianades in southwestern direction and at the end of the village take the first road to the left in southern direction. Afer 800 meters, go left and pass by the Chapel of Saint Stephen and continue until you reach the water spring where you can park. From the spring, you simply follow the trail by foot for about 600 meters until you reach the waterfall.
