Itinerary description
The route starts from village of Kapesovo, through the famous Vradeto Steps (gr: "Skala tou Vradetou") to the village of Vradeto and later to the view point of Mpeloi (the name is probably from french word of "beautiful"). The route is easy and relaxing with no technical difficulties. Very nice views from the steps and absolutely amazing from Mpeloi to the whole Vikos gorge! It is absolutely mandatory place to visit in Zagori!! (together with Oksia and Vikos village, to combine all 3 view points of the gorge from all directions).

I am 55 years old and have not a good condition. I made this walk on 19.05.2015. The scala was not easy, but I get it. The tour was phantastic. On the way back, a woman at a hotel in vradeto gave me to eat and drink because the cafe neo was closed. Very friendly greek people. The landscape at zagori is wounderfull. Thank you to Lehoo for this nice trail

Good parking at Kapesovo. This walk takes you to the beginning of the Vradeto steps, a remarkable feat of engineering. In the village of Vradeto there are two restaurants and we had a fantastic lunch in the first. The walk to the viewpoint over the Gorge is easy and the view is breathtaking. The way back covers the same ground. It is not a difficult walk to follow and if you ave taken the steps up to Vradeto you deserve a beer.
Hi all, I was wondering when you did this round-trip walk, how long does it take if you are walking in a normal pace about average of 1.5mph to 2mph ? We are planning to do this Kapesovo to Beloi Viewpoint walk in September this year :)
Well Lehoo did it in four hours 15 minutes and I would reckon it took us about the same . Difficult to judge as we had a great lunch!
Hi Duncan, Thank you for your reply and passing on your knowledge - great, we will prepare for 4 or so hours round trip for our walk in the future : ) Regards, B

Πολύ ωραίο μονοπάτι ιδανικό για πεζοπορία. Καλο είναι να φοράτε μποτάκια!!!
A perfect trail to introduce yourself to the Viskos Gorge. It offers beautiful sections inside a gorge, majestic views and picturesque villages.
