The village "Syrrako" with the village "Kalarites" are one of the most famous villages of Tzoumerka, ideal for mountain tourism. These are preserved, stone settlements, that enchant visitors. When the French consul in Ioannina, Pouqueville, visits "Syrrako" and "Kalarites", in the 19th century, was impressed by the commercial and natural beauties of the place that Ali Pasha had chosen as a resort and had, for this reason, the open and road Ioannina - Kalarites. Preserved threshing and huts are located in Syrrako.

We start from Syrrako traditional village and then we walk until Kalarrites village. At the end we go to Kouiasa where we make a brake to see the springs.

Famous tailors, builders, merchants, stone craftsmen and silversmiths, come from "Kalarites", which with "Syrrako" are traditional settlements and tourist resorts of the mountainous "Tzoumerka". The natural beauty is amazing.

The impressive monastery with its wild beauty and quirky architecture is built on almost the middle of a huge rock on the northeast side of the Gorge of Arachthon River and is admired to build over vertical rocks. Access is made from a small path, carved into the rock, and continues with a small hanging wooden bridge, leading to the monastery. The wooden bridge is mobile and the monks climbed it with leverage, so that the monastery becomes inaccessible to the bandits, as a 4-metre gap is created on the cliff when it rises.

The settlement, built at an altitude of 840m. amphitheatrically at the foot of the mountain "Strogoula" (2,107 m), perhaps the most imposing peak of Tzoumerka. The 500-year-old plane tree and the historic fountain "Arapis" dominate the main square, next to the main church of Agia Paraskevi
