The Scenic Ascent to Bellapais
Leaving the arid plains surrounding Ercan behind, your route heads north along the primary highway, offering dramatic views as you approach the jagged peaks of the Five Finger Mountains. Instead of heading into the dense traffic of downtown Kyrenia, your driver will veer upwards toward the village of Bellapais. This specific leg of the journey requires navigating tight, curving roads flanked by lemon trees and ancient stonework.
Since this 44 km trip takes place entirely within North Cyprus territory, travelers do not face any border separation points. This fluid, uninterrupted transit typically gets you to the hotel’s doorstep in exactly 45 minutes, ensuring maximum time spent enjoying the Abbey views.

Why avoid the Airport Bus?
There are no public buses that climb the Bellapais foothills. If you take the standard Kibhas airport shuttle, you will be dropped off at the busy downtown Kyrenia roundabout.
From there, you would need to drag your bags to a local cab rank to finish the steep journey to Bellapais Gardens. A pre-booked private taxi solves this completely.
