Details
Our journey kicks off from the quaint church nestled in Megalo Papigo village, deep within the picturesque Zagori region. As we venture down the trail leading to the pristine Voidomatis Potamos River, anticipation fills the air. The initial trio of rappels awaits, closely clustered together, each boasting heights ranging from 4 to 7 meters. Brace yourself for the challenge as we tackle the 17-meter descent at the fourth rappel, testing our mettle against the rugged terrain.
But the adventure is just getting started. With hearts racing and adrenaline surging, we navigate through five more demanding rappels, each one pushing the limits with heights of up to 30 meters. As we conquer each descent, the thrill intensifies, propelling us further into the heart of the gorge. Our path leads us full circle, returning us to the very spot where our unforgettable journey began.
