Switzerland of Greece: Karpenisi and the magic nature of Evritania

Welcome to #Karpenisi, the capital of #Evritania. A magical place in central #Greece.
A wild and authentic place. Here, #nature unfolds with grace its entire colorful palette. Green #mountains, with snowy peaks. Rivers and lakes that reflect the brightest blue of Greece. Fertile #valleys, the animal kingdom in harmony and the people are proud warm and hospitable. In this land are dominating the figures of the Goddess Diana, the Virgin Mary, Hercules and #Achelous, a river that was deified…
In today's episode we will discover the #Switzerland of Greece, since the whole region, the climate, the snow-capped mountains and the traditional villages look like the beautiful mountainous country of Central #Europe. A rare fact for a #Mediterranean country.

The prefecture of Evritania is almost completely covered by mountains and rivers, and as a result is the most sparsely populated in Greece.
Karpenisi is the colorful #metropolis of Evrytania! It is built on the southwest side of Mount Timfristos at an altitude of 975 meters and lies 285 kilometers away from #Athens.
Traditional #architecture, impressive stone houses with tiled roofs, sidewalks and many corners that offer a unique view that will be unforgettable. In the center of the city dominates the main square and the church of the Holy Trinity. All around, cafes and restaurants invite you to enjoy the local flavors, while the cool air smells of fir, fireplace and well-cooked food!
The area has remarkable #guesthouses and hospitality services, while there are many #winter #sports centers that will properly prepare you for your off-white adventures at the #Velouchi #ski #resort, just 11 km north of the city. Enjoy playing in the snow with your friends in one of the largest and most impressive ski resorts in Greece. The view of the surrounding area is magnificent.
The road to the east leads to #Agrafa, beautiful villages that for centuries enjoyed a status of autonomy. The most authentic face of mountainous Greece
Through a magnificent route we pass by the iron bridge of the river #Megdovas, the historic village of #Viniani and the bridge of #Tatarna on the lake Kremasta of the river Achelous.
Such is the beauty and rarity of the landscape that your eyes will find it difficult to believe that all this is true.
South of Karpenisi the surprises do not stop! The #gorge panta vrechi (is always raining) will excite you! Lakes, waterfalls, caves, dense vegetation, steep cliffs, invite you to discover them.
The twin traditional settlements of #Mikro and #Megalo #Chorio will enchant you.
Take off your emotions, gazing from the balcony at the unsurpassed natural environment of Evritania. Indulge in the peace that is generously offered to you. Have #breakfast in bed, spend time with your partner. A glass of wine by the lighted fireplace in winter or a #walk on the #paths in nature and walks on the cobbled streets of the village are highly recommended. And then, taste unique dishes and delicacies made from local pure ingredients in traditional taverns!
Finally in #Prousos thousands of believers visit this historic 3monastery and an important pilgrimage of Greece for the sake of the miraculous icon of Panagia Prousiotissa. Nearby, stands the elegant clock tower, built on a rocky hill.
On this trip you will definitely enjoy the pristine unspoiled nature. Those who want to get out of the classic tourist trampled road, the options are endless! #Rafting, #hiking, #horseback riding, canyoning, #cycling, 4x4 off road routes, paintball and a host of #alternative #tourism activities in this blessed corner of central Greece. And one thing is for sure: your love for nature and outdoor activities will become an addiction. So much so that your batteries will be fully charged and you will leave behind all the stress, sorrows and thoughts…
The land of Evritania will reward you richly. #Paradise has a name and is located in Greece!
Forests, lakes, gorges, trails, beautiful secrets and the unmistakable charm of mountainous Greece. As alpine landscapes in winter, perfect for wandering off in spring, alternative options in summer and seducing destinations in autumn, the fairytale-like villages of Karpenissi invite you to a dream getaway and are sure to find a place in your heart.
Explore the historic #Koryschades , with its timeless beauty.
Enjoy your time at Nostimo, the village that Ali Pasha loved so much for its tasty water that he built his holiday residence next to the spring.
Take a taste of Voutyro and visit the well-preserved village with the stone houses, the paved square and the magnificent view.
Enjoy the unique view of Lake Kremasta from Fidakia with its stone houses and cobbled streets.

[@jimtzikis]

Like Switzerland only in terms of scenic landscapes. Because in terms of infrastructure (emergency services, public roads, hotel quality, etc.), there is absolutely no comparison.

[@TourismosTravelGuru]

No one said or implied something like that. It is clear that "the Switzerland of Greece" is a metaphor.

[@user-xh9rz7rf8l]

Χωρίς τυραννίες, εμφυλίους, μετανάστες, πολέμους, δικτατορίες, μετανάστευση, μνημόνια κλπ. αν μας αφήνανε στην ησυχία μας, τότε θα κάναμε συσχετισμούς. Εξ άλλου την Ευρυτανία και γενικότερα την χώρα δεν την θέλουμε φλώρικη...
