Kipseli area
Kipseli is a pretty Greek village, which has two tavernas, two traditional Greek coffee shops, one of which sells basic items and a bakery. Your main shopping can be in Kanallaki, a small town 5 miles away, where you will find a good selection of shops and supermarkets.
Ammoudia is an unspoilt 700 metre long stretch of sand flanked by a eucalyptus grove. Alongside the quay you will find many cafes and tavernas. There are fishing boats and also excursion boats offering trips up river, where you can see enchanting butterflies electric blue dragonflies and terrapins.
Photogenic Parga has three beaches, a small harbour with seafront tavernas and a Venetian castle offering panoramic views of the waterfont, mountains and Ionian islands.
Glyki gorge is one delight not to be missed, being only 3 miles away it is easy to reach by car or bicycle. Here the River Acheron cuts deep into the rock strata carving its way through the gorge. The river also offers the opportunity to enjoy white water rafting, canoeing or kayacking. All of which can be hired locally. If you enjoy horse riding or pony trekking you may wish to take time to ride through the gorge, which is unspoilt, refreshing and wonderfully relaxing. There are several local tavernas offering traditional Greek hospitality.
At Dodoni, which mythology links to Jason and the Argonauts, the sanctuary includes a spectacular Classical theatre; at Ephyra the remains of a Necromanteion (oracle of the dead) was touted by the ancients as the gateway to the after-life. Kassopi and Nikopolis are impressive for their location and size.
