We go up to the village of Vikos and on our right; near the first houses we see the path. We start going down in a paved alley and after 45 minutes we arrive above the chapel of Virgin Mary. Here the path is divided in two parts: The left one leads to the chapel and the springs of Voidomatis. We follow the right one that leads to Monodendri.
The route in the gorge takes place on the right side of the riverbed. At no point of our route we pass onto the left. During the summer and winter months, you will find water only at the start of the canyon in the springs of Voidomatis. The river, that seems to be an expansion of Voidomatis, is filled with melting snow and dries up again later on.
On our route we pass through dense forests and keep on going up and down all the time. After three hours we reach the location of Klima. There, you will find a spring and on your left there is the canyon that leads to Tymfi and the mountains nearby. If we choose to continue, at a short distance we will find a wooden construction that helps us climb down the rocks. This is only difficult point of the route.
We return through the same path till the first spring of Voidomatis. From here we can go to Papigo or return to the village of Vikos. You have to be extra careful at the point we cross the river to go to Papigo as there is no bridge. The crossing is possible only when the river’s flow is small.
