Plakas Bridge

Plakas Bridge is one of the most significant monuments of Epirus architecture and one of the most recognizable landmarks of the Tzoumerka region. Built over the Arachthos River, it served for many years as a vital passage connecting entire regions of Epirus, while its imposing single-arch structure has ranked it among the most impressive stone bridges in the Balkans.

Today, it is not merely an engineering feat of the past, but a living symbol of history, resilience, and humanity’s relationship with the wild natural landscape of Tzoumerka. Its presence within the gorge, combined with the power of the river and the dramatic landscape, creates an experience that remains deeply etched in the memory of every visitor.
