Venetikos is a river in the prefecture of Grevena, it originates from the mountains of Smolikas, Vasilitsa, Orliakas and Valia Calda. It is one of the largest tributaries of the Aliakmonas. In about 2.5 hours from Thessaloniki we reach the village of Felli and the base where we will change and receive the necessary equipment. We will prepare for the descent and depart for the beginning of the route.
The route of Venetikos B’ is 9km, it starts from the bridge of Eleftherochori, crosses a small gorge and ends in the village of Agapi, at its junction with Aliakmonas. It has passes of 2nd degree of difficulty and duration of activity 2:00 – 2:30 hours, depending on the flow of the river. Children over 8 years old can participate in this route. After 2 – 2:30 hours of unique experience in the waters of Venetikos we depart for the return with a stopover in Grevena.
Day rafting trip to Angitis! The sources of the river are located in the city of Drama, in the tenagi of Philippi and in the village of Aggitis Drama, where are the homonymous springs which create the cave of Angitis. The cave is the largest river cave in the world and is the largest cave in Greece.
