Route Follow the main Kyrenia-Nicosia highway turning right before reaching the highest point of the mountain pass for St Hilarion Castle (7 mile).
For Nicosia turn to the right when regaining the main Nicosia-Kyrenia road (14 mile). Alternatively continue west after descending from the castle, and connect with the Forest Road to Larnaca-tis-Lapithou. from which a secondary road leads to Kondemenos and the excellent new road to Nicosia .
Bellapais Abbey is reached from History of St Hilarion Castle by taking a right turning after rejoining the direct Nicosia Kyrenia highway about 1/2 mile in the Kyrenia direction, although a combined excursion to both these sites should be avoided if the most is to be got out of them. At the time of going to press, however, the linking road is closed.
