The historical town of Karpenisi is the capital of Evritania Prefecture, located on the southwestern slopes of Velouhi mountain. This small town, with the impressive mountains, the fir-covered peaks and the crystal running waters is a ''heaven on earth'' which captivates the visitor all year round!

It is worth touring in Karpenisi and in its picturesque settlements and admiring the excellent samples of the local architecture, with the renovated mansions, the arched bridges, the byzantine churches, the monasteries and the old schools. Karpenisi fascinates the visitor with its flexible character. In autumn, it is "dressed" in red-orange shades, makes an ideal destination for relaxation, tranquility and walks in the nature. In winter, the snowy setting captivates the senses and the ski resort on Velouhi mountain becomes the town's hallmark. In spring, the Evritanian nature flourishes and the scenery turns heavenly; full of colours. In summer, Karpenisi becomes a cultural center, as the Festivities of the Forest and of the Folklore Tradition take place, with theatrical performances, concerts, exhibitions and other artistic activities. Regardless the time of the year you choose to visit Karpenisi, it is worth "losing yourself" in its streets and take a moment in the central square of Markos Botsaris, with the stone fountains and the plane tree, as old as the hills, which has inspired numerous folksongs. The square is paved with large pebbles, forming semicircles, each of which bears the name of the municipality of the area. A few meters further from the square lies Agia Triada Cathedral (Cathedral of the Holy Trinity), which has been classified as a designated historical monument. Of great interest is also the Museum of Karpenisi, dedicated to Alexander and Constantine Tsatsos. In the main Zinopoulou street, you will find café/bars, shops with local products and stores selling winter sports equipment. In the southern part of the town the green Hill, with the small church of St. Demetrius, which offers panoramic view of the entire town, stand out.

It is worth visiting the historical region of Kefalovryso; a beautiful place with tall plane trees, cool water springs and a tiny artificial lake. There, two monuments honoring the Greek Revolution hero, Markos Botsaris, reminding the visitor of the "heavy" history of this place, stand out. Those fans of alternative tourism will love Karpenisi, as they can choose from a variety of activities, such as hiking on beautiful forest trails, horse-riding, cycling, paintballing and rafting.

In Karpenisi, the so called "Switzerland of Greece", the picturesque setting along with the traditional architecture are combined in harmony with the virgin nature and the landscapes of incomparable beauty, creating a destination which enchants the most demanding traveler!
