Zagoria - Greece HD Travel Channel
The Zagoria (Ζαγόρι), a short form of Zagorohoria - the villages behind the mountains - includes an area of 46 villages north of Ioannina. Typically, the houses are built with stones of this area.
The rough terrain of the Zagoria was a popular area of retreat for partisans in the Greek War of Independence and during the occupation.
Above Monodendri is an impressive stone forest, which was made accessible by a new road.
The herds of goats look picturesque, but the shepherds do not always have empathy with their animals.
Beginning of the 19th Century, the Ottomans built eight stone arched bridges in the Zagoria. The most impressive - tou Plakida, with three stone arches is located just outside the village of Kipi below the road to Ioannina.

Die Zagoria (Ζαγόρι), eine Kurzform von Zagorochória -- die Dörfer hinter den Bergen -, umfasst ein Gebiet mit 46 Dörfern nördlich von Ioannina. Typischerweise werden die Häuser mit Steinen der Umgebung erbaut.
Im Unabhängigkeitskrieg und während der Besatzungszeit war die unübersichtliche Zagoria ein beliebtes Rückzugsgebiet für Partisanen.
Oberhalb von Monodendri befindet sich ein eindrucksvoller Steinwald, der erst kürzlich durch eine neue Straße erschlossen wurde.
Die Ziegenherden sehen malerisch aus, doch die Hirten gehen nicht immer sehr einfühlsam mit ihren Tieren um.
Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts bauten die Osmanen acht geschwungene Steinbrücken in der Zagoria. Die beeindruckendste - tou Plakida -bestehend aus drei Bögen befindet sich kurz vor dem Dorf Kipi unterhalb der Straße nach Ioannina.

Zagori, Greece - My Adventure Diary
Zagori is such a beautiful place! Unfortunately, we didn't have much time there, so we only visited their iconic bridges. But that was already enough to impress us. When we were travelling in Greece, we saw stores selling bottled water from zagori, so we drank some while we were there and it was so refreshing!

A Roadtrip in Epirus, Greece - 50 minutes around Vikos Gorge
NOTE:
This isn't my usual Car-Centric upload, but is a product closer to my heart's definition of true road tripping pleasure, because spending a day driving leisurely around is to also explore new roads in unknown territory, to find some unspoiled countryside with good food and good company and to appreciate the long history that exists in parts of the world. In that regard, this is about as good as I've ever had it.
SUMMARY of the VIDEO:
A long edit from a day trip in a Mercedes C180 through the mountains above Ioannina in the Epirus region of Greece, known as The Zagorohoria, with my son Simon. We drove to the deepest gorge in Europe; The Vikos Gorge. We visited rustic hill towns like Vitsa and Monodendri, explored old monasteries and mountains with interlacing rivers spanned by old stone arch bridges that the area is famous for.
The clip opens with still shots and text introducing the area. The video starts around the 3 minute mark. The video presents three segments of driving. First is from the town of Kipoi 440 10 at the south end of the Vikos Gorge to the town of Vikos at the north end of the gorge. I talk a bit about history and driving in the area. At Vikos we enjoy some ice cream while looking at the views. Then follows a shorter segment where we leave Vikos and drive via Aristi to an ice cold river for a refreshing splash. The last segment is the longest and shows the drive from the river, via Aristi, all the way back to Ioannina showing the transition from mountain roads, to the main valley road, through the city outskirts and into the center 'Kastro' of Ioannina within the Ottoman period fortress walls.
I hope you enjoy it. I'd be glad to get comments. Let me know if particular parts are boring enough to delete. I had a hard time cutting more without feeling it lost it's personal flavor and sense of sharing the exploration we undertook that day.
Thank you,

We viewed the Vikos gorge on several places. I also used my drone to get some aerial footage. We were lucky there were few other tourists. Φαράγγι του Βίκου
Είδαμε το φαράγγι του Βίκου σε πολλά μέρη. Χρησιμοποίησα επίσης το κινητό μου για να πάρω κάποια αεροπλάνα. Ήμασταν τυχεροί που υπήρχαν λίγοι άλλοι τουρίστες.
