Because of that\, the area has a very authentic and off-the-beaten-path feeland you’ll get to enjoy it without the tourist crowds that suffocate many other parts of Greece\, especially during the summer holiday season.\n\n\n\nThe rich wildlife of the National Park includes species of amphibians\, birds and mammals. The important contribution of the National Park refers not only to the fauna\, but to the flora as well.\n\n\n\nNestled behind the Mitsikeli mountain\, lie the 46 traditional villages of Zagorochoria\, enhancing the region’s natural\, rugged beauty and captivating visitors with their impressive architecture. These are villages with a pure mountainous atmosphere\, rich history\, ancient churches\, and cobblestone streets. This harmonious blend of nature and culture extends to Zagorochoria’s recent recognition.\n\n\n\nThe location is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site\, celebrated for its distinct traditional stone architecture\, showcasing the shared Byzantine and Ottoman heritage in the Balkans.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPARTICIPATION FEE\n\n\n\nThe fee for the event will be 580 € in a double/twin room.
