Located in the Famagusta district near the villages of Frenaros, Avgorou, and Vrysoulles, our 30,000 m² nature reserve is our first targeted effort to create and maintain a rich and diverse habitat that supports plants, insects, birds, and other wildlife as well as an outdoor education space for the local communities and beyond. We invite public and private schools from all over Cyprus to visit Thkio Mosfilies and help students connect with nature! Take your classroom outdoors to participate in our engaging and fun outdoor sessions, that provide to students direct, hands-on experiences in nature, offering them opportunities to explore what’s around them and become more mindful of nature.
