Rugged and mountainous Epirus seems immune to mass tourism, offering a pleasant alternative to Greece's overcrowded islands and ancient sites. The pace of life has stayed slow in Epirus, a region committed to preserving its local customs and rich cultural heritage. Nature lovers and hikers visit to explore the region's mountains and gorges, while history buffs head to Ioannina, the largest and architecturally most appealing of Epirus' cities. The lakeside city's attractions include a medieval castle and a 15th-century mosque, evidence of the long Ottoman occupation of this part of the country. Epirus' other notable places to visit include two national parks--pristine wilderness areas still largely undiscovered by foreign visitors. Take a look at our Greece trip planner to refine the details of your trip to Epirus.
