Vradeto

Vradeto is a village in the Greek Zagori region (Epirus region). It lies at a height of 1344 m on Mt Tymphe in the Pindus mountain range.

It is the highest of the 46 villages of Zagori.

The main church, dedicated to the Birth of Mary was built in 1799 with a donation from Nikolaos Tsigaras. Other churches are those of Agios Athanasios at the top of the Skala, Agios Nikolaos, Prophetes Elias and Agios Georgios with a cemetery.

It is the middle of the Vikos–Aoös National Park. It is located only a few kilometers from the Vikos Gorge and near one of the best vantage points, Beloe (Beloi) (perhaps a Slavic word meaning "good view" or "balcony").

It is located also close to an alpine lake called Drakolimni (Dragon’s Lake), one of several such lakes.

Until the close of the 20th century there was only one way to reach the village, via a kalderimi (paved mule road) called the Skala of Vradeto.
