Vikos gorge highlights :Birth of a river – Vikos Gorge. Crosses the heart of Vikos -Aoos National park and the Voidomatis springs, where a river is born!
This moderate difficulty hike, crosses the heart of Vikos -Aoos National park, continues partly through the Vikos gorge where the hiker can dive into the crystal waters of the Voidomatis springs, where a river is born! The path finishes at the Vikos village as the way up brings astonishing views!
