Bridges & villages hike-Zagori

Hiking through the stone bridges and traditional villages of Zagori is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful ways to experience the region!

Our hike begins in the village of Kipi. The route takes us across impressive stone, arched bridges dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries, including the single-arched Pistioni Bridge, the Mylos Bridge and the three-arched Plakidas Bridge.

We continue to the village of Koukouli, where we can explore the traditional village and, if we wish, visit the Lazaridis Folklore Museum. The museum is housed in the traditional home of its founder, Kostas Lazaridis, who devoted himself to collecting and preserving the rare flora of the Vikos area. Visitors can admire a variety of medicinal plants found in the region and learn about the fascinating tradition of the renowned “Vikogiatroi”, the local healers of Zagori.

After exploring Koukouli, we descend along the Koukouli Steps towards the village of Kipi, completing our beautiful circular route.

Rafting Voidomatis river

This beautiful water adventure takes us through the heart of the Vikos–Aoos National Park. The Voidomatis River rises near the village of Vikos in central Zagori and, after flowing through the lush Vikos Gorge, meets the Aoos River in the Konitsa valley. Surrounded by a rare natural environment of exceptional ecological value, the Voidomatis offers an unforgettable experience.

During our descent, we paddle through ancient plane trees, caves and impressive stone arch bridges. For the more adventurous, there is also the opportunity to take a refreshing dip in the river’s crystal-clear, icy waters!

Our rafting adventure begins at the Aristi Bridge and ends just after the single-arched stone Klidonia Bridge, right below our base. The 6 km route has no particular technical requirements or significant difficulties, making it ideal for beginners who want to experience rafting without any previous experience.

Just before the end of the route, we pass through a small artificial waterfall, adding an extra element of fun to an already exciting day!
