Aktaion

Epirus. Epirus occupies Greece’s north-western corner and is spectacularly beautiful. Largely mountainous, with three peaks of 2500m plus, it is (once away from the coast) one of Greece’s most remote regions, and centuries-old traditions, fast-vanishing in many other areas, still flourish here. The heart of this fascinating area is inland. Here are the mighty peaks of the Pindos, forests, rivers, lakes, gorges, meadows, preserved stone villages, some 1700 species of flora, and a wildlife which includes wolves and bears. The Vlach shepherds in the high Pindos still speak a form of Latin. Book a room with Aktaion and experience the vision of harmony and balance, an ode to timeless beauty that unravels the cares of the soul. Aktaion is located at Agion Apostolon 17, Igoumenitsa, 46100, Greece – an ideal starting point to combine Epirus with a week or two by the sea in Lefkas, Meganissi, Parga or Sivota, or even a sailing holiday. Combining mountain and sea, moments of tranquility, not to mention fun and a plethora of sights, Aktaion will definitely gain your heart and stir your senses.
