About the destination

Epirus and the Zagori region (Zagorochoria) offer an authentic escape into one of Greece's most dramatic and untouched mountainous landscapes. Known for its perfectly preserved stone villages, ancient arched stone bridges, and the awe-inspiring Vikos Gorge, this region is a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you are hiking through dense forests, rafting down crystal-clear rivers, or simply taking in the majestic views of the Pindus mountains, this 7-day itinerary promises a deep connection with nature, tradition, and pure tranquility. Day 1: Arrival in Ioannina & Transfer to Zagori Arrive in the city of Ioannina and drive up the winding mountain roads to your traditional stone guesthouse in the Zagori region. Settle in, breathe the crisp alpine air, and enjoy a hearty welcome dinner featuring the famous traditional Epirus pies to gently adjust to the mountain rhythm. Day 2: Monodendri, Vitsa & Ancient Stone Bridges Explore the central Zagori villages of Monodendri and Vitsa. Walk down historic cobblestone paths (kalderimia) to discover the iconic arched stone bridges, such as Kokkoros and Plakidas (Kalogeriko), which seamlessly blend into the dramatic natural landscape. Day 3: Tsepelovo, Kapesovo & Village Circuit Wander through the less-visited, highly authentic villages of the region. Visit Kapesovo to admire its grand stone mansions, walk a section of the impressive Vradeto Steps, and relax in the picturesque main square of Tsepelovo under the giant plane trees. Day 4: Vikos Gorge Viewpoints & Easy Hiking Dedicate your day to the magnificent Vikos Gorge. Visit the Oxya and Beloi viewpoints for panoramic, dizzying views of the massive canyon. Enjoy a moderate hike along the gorge's edge, surrounded by rich flora, limestone formations, and towering cliffs. Day 5: Voidomatis River Rafting & Nature Day Head to the crystal-clear, icy waters of the Voidomatis River. Opt for an exhilarating yet beginner-friendly rafting experience through the National Park, or enjoy a peaceful walk through the ancient plane tree forest lining the riverbanks, ending up at the Aristi bridge. Day 6: Ioannina Town & Lake Pamvotis Leave the mountains and head down to the lively city of Ioannina. Walk inside the historic castle walls, visit the fascinating silversmithing museums, and take a small boat to the car-free island in the middle of Lake Pamvotis to taste local delicacies and explore narrow alleys. Day 7: Departure Enjoy a final morning coffee by the lake in Ioannina. Pick up some traditional handmade silver jewelry or local baklava as a souvenir before heading to the airport or starting your drive back home.
