Oleastro Olive Park

Oleastro Olive Park

The leader in the Cypriot organic olive oil market

Ideally situated, half way between Pafos and Limassol, gazing the pick of Troodos Mountain to the north and overlooking the Episkopi bay to the south, the Olive Park Oleastro is 3 km past the picturesque village of Anogyra, famous for its unspoiled traditional character.

The Olive Park Oleastro is unique, featuring aspects of the 60,000 years of the civilization of the olive, such as extraction methods, farming activities, representations of excavations, the olive tree in painting, professions related to the olive tree, the role of the olives and olive oil in the Mediterranean diet, customs, traditions, history, mythology and much more.

For younger friends, there is a playground, an artist’s corner and the park animals. An olive museum, a restaurant, a gift shop specializing in olive products, a visitor’s center, and an ecological olive mill, where people can watch the actual olive oil extraction between mid-October and February, complete the Olive Park.

The ecological olive mill applies the latest ‘green’ technology and produces olive oil of the highest possible standard. It’s a ‘first’ in Cyprus because it uses cold pressing with millstones, and it’s the only mill certified to the ISO22000 (food safety and hygiene) and ISO9001 (quality) and ISO14001 (environmental protection) standards. The olive oil produced here maintains fully all its nutritional elements, original flavor, aroma, color, and polyphenols.

All exhibits are accompanied by selected brief, interesting and educating texts in four languages (Greek, English, German and French).
