A message from the Mayor, Mr. Vasilis Spyrou

dhmarxos-zagoriou

Colleagues and friends, friends and family of Zagori, I welcome you to the official, renewed, website of our Municipality.

The Municipality of Zagori was created under the “Kallikrates” programme, by merging the former Municipalities of Central Zagori, East Zagori, Tymfi and the former Communities of Papigko and Vovousa.

The headquarters of the Municipality are the Asprangeli, where the main town hall also operates, as well as in the former municipalities, the Municipal Departments of Eastern Zagori in Miliotades and Tymfis in Tsepelovo, the personnel that serve them offer services along with the KEPs operating as well as the KEP in the Papigo Municipal District.

Spreading over an area of 989.8 square kilometers, the Municipality of Zagori is the largest in Epirus and one of the five most sparsely populated in the country compared to the population, with 3.8 inhabitants per square km.

The efforts of the Municipal Authority, the Municipal Council and the Municipal Services are ongoing to address the problems that arise due to the extent, long distances, and mountain geography of the area.

Serving the citizens is our primary concern.

Beyond the problems and the struggle to improve everyday life and support the inhabitants of Zagori, there is the other side too.

The incomparable beauty of the natural and structured environment, the monuments of nature and human civilization, the people of Zagori themselves are the strength of this place.

Zagori has established itself in a world-famous tourist destination, all year around.

Of course, our goal is to support and enhance the upgrading of the tourist product in all forms of alternative tourism, in cooperation with the professionals operating in the villages, but also by any appropriate means and action to promote it.

Particular emphasis is given to preserving and spreading the invaluable value of our culture to younger people, supporting the activities of organizations and associations, organizing events and actions to promote it, both inside and outside Greece.

Through the official web site of the Municipality of Zagori, we aim at the prompt and valid briefing of our colleagues and all our visitors about the happenings in our Municipality, the decisions taken in the Municipal Council and the other administrative bodies, but also in the ongoing promotion of our place, so as to make it one of the most famous attractions for tourists worldwide.
