A route of myth and history, from picturesque Parga to the most famous Oracle of the Dead of antiquity and the banks of the Acheron.

The most important cultural route in the region, centred on Roman Nikopolis — the first Roman colony in Greece — and heroic Zalongo.

A journey through the cultural wealth of the Prefecture of Preveza, from the city to the Louros valley, linking unique monuments — from Palaeolithic Asprochaliko and the ancient Elian colonies to the impressive Roman aqueduct.

A combination of hiking and river crossing. From Samoniva, the path wraps around the Koungi hill and reaches the Tsaggariotiko stream, where the only survivor of the seven Souliot watermills stands within a beautiful plane-tree forest. The stream then flows through a small gorge with striking meanders, down to the Dala Bridge and its confluence with the Acheron.

The most enchanting route — a whole day spent in the waters of the Acheron. The constantly changing scenery, the pools that form along the way and the dense vegetation that often covers the river make crossing the gorge a unique experience. About 25% of the route is swimming and the rest is walking. Never do it alone — there is no way out before the Dala Bridge. A special waterproof bag is essential.

The route links Glyki with the plain of Sertziana, crossing lush terrain above the western bank of the Acheron. The path rises and falls along the steep slopes west of the river. Just before the end it is worth turning left to visit the river and the mythical Gates of Hades, the entrance to the Acheron gorge.

The route follows the eastern slopes above the Acheron and visits the fourth Souliot village, the abandoned Avariko, with the few ruined houses where 60 families once lived. Without major elevation changes, it passes picturesque scenery beside streams in a lush environment, ending at the village of Sykia (Sertziana).

A continuation of Route 2, for those comfortable with hiking. From Souli it passes the village of Samoniva and climbs to the enigmatic Kiafa Fortress — a sixteen-sided stronghold (probably Venetian) with panoramic views over the Acheron chasms and the plain of Fanari. The return is via the Dala Bridge towards Glyki, along the steep paths where heroic battles were fought against Ali Pasha.
