Konitsa

Konitsa • Lake Zaravina • Klidonia Bridge • Monastery of Molybdoskepasti • Voidomatis River • Aoos River

📌 We explore the wider area of Konitsa, its hidden treasures and reach 400 meters from the Greek-Albanian border!

Sunday’s spring trip starts from Ioannina (Academia) with the first stop being Lake Zaravina! The lake has a beautiful panoramic shape and is located at an altitude of 460 meters, while it is one of the deepest in Greece, with a depth of more than 30 meters! We will explore its shores and walk along its beautiful little paths! Next point of our trip, the bridge of Klidonia. This is an impressive stone bridge that connects the banks of the Voidomatis River. This bridge dates back to around the 18th century and is an important historical and architectural monument. It is built of stone with architectural elements that are typical of the traditional folk architecture of the area. We will then take the road to the Monastery of Panagia Molyboskepasti, which will be the third stop of our excursion. It is a Byzantine monastery of particular beauty, located next to the Greek-Albanian border, 20km from Konitsa.

Its nickname is due to the fact that the roof of the church was covered with lead sheets. The monastery is built near the point where the Aoos River joins the Sarantaporos River, just 400 metres from the Greek-Albanian border. And finally, Konitsa! A long history and architectural heritage that reflects the multicultural nature of the region. Overlooking the hidden peaks of Tymfi and the icy waters of the Aoos River, it is a spot of stunning natural beauty. It gives us the opportunity to enjoy the panoramic landscapes and explore the paths that lead to mountain slopes and traditional villages in the surrounding area. Finally, it is definitely worth walking through its narrow streets and moving towards the historic Bridge of Konitsa, which is its most famous attraction. Built in the late 19th century, it is about 20 meters long and is characterized by its architecture, with its white stone arch that stands out over the Aoos River.

📷 After a day full of exploration and new experiences, we start our return to Ioannina, full of beautiful pictures, good mood and great photos!
