In the remote Pindos mountains of north-west Greece, join us on a 5-night, supported and guided cycling and walking journey through the wonderfully scenic region of Zagori.

Quiet tarmac roads wind between enchanting mountain villages which, with their cobbled streets and charming squares, could have leapt straight out of a Victorian fairytale. Between Fragades and Papigo you will weave your way alongside magnificent gorges, through rich forests and across high pastures where seminomadic shepherds graze large flocks of sheep. On the way you will walk up ancient mule tracks, swim in waterfalls and crystal clear rivers, visit monasteries, and marvel at gracefully arched bridges. In the evenings you will enjoy wonderful hospitality in traditional guesthouses, where you will discover a culture and way of life that has remained unchanged for centuries. Summer is a magical time to be in the region – plenty of wild swimming!
