Vikos Gorge has been designated as a world geopark by UNESCO. We start from Aristi or Papigko Bridge in northwestern Zagori where we will enjoy an easy route for all in the third part of the Vikos gorge which is a part of Vikos – Aoos National Park since 1973 The name of the river comes from Slavic language (Bode–Mat which translates “good water”) or from the Greek language (Voidomatis which translates as the eye of the bull) During the trail we observe the unique monastery of Spiliotissa, built on a rock and we visit the old church of Agioi Anargyroi which was built in 1658 The route ends to Kleidonia single arched stone bridge, which was built in 1853 in order to connect the locals from the villages Agios Minas and Aristi towards to Konitsa plain, and also people from Konitsa town towards Ioannina city.
