Highlight • Religious Site

I recommend a visit to the Stomio Monastery for several reasons, but above all I was impressed by its beautiful location, its silence and contemplation.

View of Aoos Canyon from the Epirus Trail

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view point with view into the Aoos Canyon in direction Konitsa and Monastery Stomio. Be careful: the view point is located at the Epirus trail that is running 100-200m above the trail at the waterfront.

Stone Water Fountain on the Epirus Trail

Highlight • Rest Area

The only source for drink water between the Monastery and the Konitsa bridge. On the left side of the fountain theres also a small path that connects the Epirus trail with the trail right at the waterfront.

September 18, 2023,Von Konitsa zum Panagia Stomiou Monastery und zurück

The path is most beautiful in the morning and evening sun, and the path is also very sunny at midday. The hike requires endurance, but has no technical requirements. The monastery is picturesquely situated on a mountain promontory. Unfortunately, it does not offer any gastronomy. The path leads through a beautiful river valley.

There are two trails, one right at the waterfront and one 50-150 mhigh above from the water (Epirus trail). You can combine both trails for a round tour like we did. The …

A very beautiful hike up to the monastery, doable in about 60 minutes for the fittest, and the return trip is also possible. There's a large parking lot at the start of the hike. On weekends, there are many Greek pilgrims, who are brought there by bus.

An easy route that runs alongside the river along a wide path until 1.5 km before the monastery, where it climbs about 200 m in elevation. The monastery is worth visiting and offers beautiful views of the gorge. The return trip was via the Epirus Trail, which adds an extra kilometer to the route but is well worth it as …
