Epirus – North-West Greece

 

North-West Greece is a region that continue to have wild forested hills, clear rivers surpassed by arched bridges. A region that is a home to bears and wolves, a land of green mountain dales and rugged gorges.
The region is Epirus in northwest Greece; Epirus is largely made up of the Pindus Mountains, the anchor of Greece. Simultaneously the people and land have definitely a unique character that is defined by the mountains. Its name’s meaning is endless earth, the ancient Greeks believed the area to be wilderness and the people barbaric, but many archaeologic sites in Epirus indicate different. It might be now thought that both the Mycenaens, and later the Dorians may have emerged from the mountains of Epirus. since the ancient years its history has been exactly the same as the rest of the land, being occupied by anybody from the Romans until the Turks the same as the rest of Greece.

The Ionian Coast of Epirus

The shoreline of North-West Greece is overly full of sandy beaches and invisible cliffs where the mountains go down into the Ionian sea, in some places pines and fur forests reach the sea making it a fjord-like general look. The wise spot to begin travel in Epirus, North-West Greece is Preveza, having in the south the only airport in the region with flights from Europe. Preveza lies on the mouth of the Ambracian Gulf, that’s a beautiful town with a vibrant beach padded with tiny streets of restaurants and taverns. The gulf mouth is rounded by two Venetian fortifications on either side; but it is more known to be the place of the fight of Actium in 31BC, where Octavian conquered Mark Anthony and Cleopatra. The remains of Nikopolis “Victory City”, built to celebrate Octavian’s triumph, are about 7km to North of Preveza.
