Voidomatis, one of the most clean rivers of Europe
The crystal clear waters of Voidomatis have become an unforgettable experience for the travelers who arrived at its banks. It has always been a source of life for the ecosystem and the heart of the forest of Vikos-Acheloos. It is also known as “river of Vikos” and has an overall length of 25 km.
Its name in Greek could be translated as ox-eyed. Its waters are so clean that reminds you of a mirror and its temperature is almost fixed at 4 degrees Celsius which turn Voidomatis in one of the most cold rivers of Greece.
At every point of its extent it’s surrounded by lush vegetation and dense forests but the part that stands out for its beauties is its springs. They are located south of Vikos village at Zagori and it’s the most impressive point of the ravine. Near there you can visit the little church of Panagia(Virgin Mary) of Vikos which was build back in 1783.
Specifically, the part from the springs to the bridge of Aristi, is one of the most isolated areas of the country where many animals and plants find safety.
Enjoy the flight!
