Activity Description

Hiking to the top of Mitsikeli. Seeing Ioannina from above.

Mitsikeli (1,810m) rises among the majestic mountains of Pindos and is reflected in the calm waters of Lake Pamvotida. The name of the mountain is of Slavic origin and means "the bear's nest". Mitsikeli is a mountain with two distinct features. The side facing south and east is bare, with limestone "shining" from afar, while to the north and west the mountain is covered by dense forests. The hike starts from the EOS Shelter. Ioannina (1,280m altitude). It is a circular route that rises above the vegetation zone and leads us to the top of the mountain (1,810 m. Altitude). From there, we will admire the view to the forests of Zagori, the ravine of Vikos, Lake Pamvotida and the city of Ioannina, as well as to all the large mountains of Pindos.
