An authentic mountain experience in Epirus
This is a cluster of traditional hamlets, perched at elevations often exceeding 1,000 metres, all characterised by stone construction, minimalist architecture, and a seamless integration with the natural landscape.
The villages, with their cobbled streets and imposing mansions, are connected by elaborate stone bridges that span rivers and ravines, a hallmark of Zagorian architecture. Many Zagori villages were the birthplaces of national benefactors, scholars and artists, and they maintain a long tradition of education.
The Vikos-Aoös National Park plays a central role in the landscape, with the impressive Vikos Gorge, one of the deepest in the world, the sources of the Voidomatis River and the pristine forests of Tymfi. The Zagori region is an ideal destination for hiking, mountaineering, cycling and mountain activities, with trails connecting villages and stunning natural sites.
