Waterfall of Kyprianades
Kyprianades is a small village in northern Corfu, about 29km from Corfu Town. It is known for having the second-largest waterfall on the island, about 8 meters high. (The largest waterfall is in Nymfes.) Although the waterfall is often dry, it still attracts visitors due to its lush, green surroundings.
There are two ways to reach the waterfall. If you are in the village of Kyprianades, head towards the Church of Agios Vasileios, which is located in the center of the village. It is a pink church by the roadside. If you are driving, you will need to park in one of the few spots along the road and continue on foot, as the road narrows and cars cannot pass. Next to the church, you will find a few steps leading to a path. After walking 200 meters, you will reach a spring.
If there is no parking space or you prefer to avoid the narrow village roads, you can go directly to the spring by taking a dirt road around the village. Just before entering the village from the west, you will see a sign that says “Kiprianades Spring.” Follow the dirt road, cross a small concrete bridge, turn left, pass by a small church, and you will reach the spring.
At the spring, there is also a pumping station, and the area is nicely set up for visitors. Click here to view the location on Google Maps. To the left of the spring, next to the fenced area, you will find the trail to the waterfall. After about a 10-minute walk through the forest, you will reach the waterfall.

This waterfall tends to dry up easily. It usually has water from November, depending on rainfall, until early spring. To avoid disappointment, you can ask a local for information before visiting. Don’t rely only on GPS, as the area isn’t well-mapped. The trail goes through the forest, so it’s best to wear long clothes to protect yourself.
