Vradetou Staircase is one of the most characteristic hiking and historical routes in the Zagorohoria villages. It is an imposing stone-paved path connecting Kapesovo with Vradeto, climbing the mountainside with approximately 1,100–1,200 stone steps and dozens of turns. For many decades, it was the main road connecting Vradeto with the rest of the world, until the modern road was built, giving it not only natural but also historical significance.

The route allows visitors to approach the landscape at their own pace, feel the connection between the old communities and the mountain, and see how human technical knowledge has been respectfully adapted to the natural terrain.
