The Pindos mountain range runs along the borders of Epiros and Thessalia provinces in the northwestern mainland of Greece.
The North Pindos is famous for its Zagoria villages with their stone houses and paved mule paths (kalderimia) and the Vikos Gorge. In this area you walk along the characteristic stone formations that look like piles of coins (schists).

The net walking time is between 3 and 5 hours (excluding the breaks). You may extend your stay in all accommodations; we offer more hikes from some locations.

This is a hiking tour for active people who love peace and nature and who want to have the time to enjoy at ease.

About the walks

Most walks are on narrow and sometimes steep mountain paths. Generally the paths are cleared and well marked. You will find loose stones on your path and steep drop-offs on the sides.
You must be sure-footed and fit and not prone to vertigo.

As the markings are not always well visible (stones turned by animals etc.), the use and knowledge of a GPS is obligatory. The tracks are provided and can be loaded in a GPS device or in a smartphone.
