Epirus and Western Macedonia
Region Epirus and Western Macedonia

The terrain of Epirus and Western Macedonia ranges from the Ionian coastal plains of western Epirus to the mountain basins of Western Macedonia in the east, giving this northwestern Greek region a strongly continental interior. The Pindus range runs through its heart, while the Aoos River cuts through rugged country near Konitsa. In Zagori, stone-built settlements and arched bridges form a cultural landscape inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2023. Ioannina, beside Lake Pamvotida, adds a major urban counterpoint, with a walled old quarter shaped by Byzantine and Ottoman periods.
