- Plaka Arched Bridge - Constructed at the end of the 19th century, the “Politsa” bridge facilitated movement for residents from the villages of Ampelochori, Raftanai, Akmada, Pramanta, and Ktistades towards Ioannina. The bridge features four arches, with three smaller ones grounded and the large arch spanning the “Arachthos” river.
- Klifkis Waterfall - Starting from Kaletzi village, the path leads to one of the area’s most significant attractions, the springs and waterfalls of Klifki, with the first waterfall standing at 47 meters high. Upon reaching the river, visitors are greeted by the final waterfall of Klifki, set in a picturesque location with a lake and stunning rock formations.
- Kostitsi - A simple 30-minute walk from Kostitsi village leads to the Prophet Elias Church. This remarkable spot offers an excellent view where two rivers converge within the canyon.
- Plaka Arched Bridge - Erected in 1866, it was once regarded as the largest single-arched bridge in the Balkans, boasting a span of 40 meters, a height of 19 meters, and a top opening of 3.2 meters. From 1881 to 1913, the bridge served as a border between the Greek and Turkish states.

Amazing Epirus - Amazing topography but also excellent service by tour guide, who had so much knowledge to share. He took amazing photos and videos which we can share with family. He planned trip so well so it could be tailored to our needs.
