Konitsa Municipality

Among Greece’s regions, Konitsa Municipality stands out for its rugged frontier terrain, where the Pindus mountains meet the Albanian border. In Epirus, the municipality extends around the town of Konitsa and across deep valleys cut by the Aoos River. Smolikas, Greece’s second-highest mountain, rises within this wider area, while wooded slopes give way to open high country. Konitsa is also associated with its imposing single-arch stone bridge over the Aoos, completed in 1870, a lasting example of Epirus’s stone-building tradition. The area suits travellers drawn to mountain roads, river valleys and the distinctive architecture of northwestern Greece.
