Verliga, the sources of Acheloos (also know as "Aspropotamos") region, Pindos mountain range, Trikala, Thessaly, Greece
Verliga, the sources of Acheloos (also known as "Aspropotamos") river, at 2000 m altitude, in the heart of the Alpine Zone of Pindus (or "Pindos") mountain range, the "spine" of Greece. So remote, difficult to reach, but one of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen, even this time of year (end of summer) when the water is so little. It's here, where the ancient "River-God" starts its long journey. Truly a "must-see" , but most important a "must-feel" for the lovers of the Greek mountains. It is about 12,5 kmon a difficult dirtroad from Chaliki village. There is also access from the other side, Epirus, from the villages of Tzoumerka mountains.
