Emphasizing that in Greece tourism is on 365 days a year, the British media highlights in a unique way the mainland destination, which not only enchants you with its natural environment but also “captivates” you in a unique experience with its multitude of activities.
The article makes extensive reference to the Vikos gorge and the springs of Voidomatis, where, as journalist Kathryn Ferguson found, the water is always icy, even in summer.
Writing simply what she observes, the British journalist felt perfectly in tune with the wild beauty of the mountains but also the warm hospitality of the people.

Of course, the article does not lack the sleek and thorough tour of Monodendri, the beautiful dragon lake of Tymfi, the staircase of Vradeto “with more than a thousand cobbled stairs that go up the mountain slope to the village, in the Monastery of Panagia Spili and on the bridge of Klidonia, while reading about the local gastronomy one feels the tradition smelling fresh from so far away.
