It seemed a preposterous notion at first, but finally my journey was rewarded in Epirus, about 180 miles north of my starting point, in the northwest corner of Greece.” In The New York Times, Lou Ureneck delights his inner classicist in the freestone and limestone streams of Epirus, described by a local guide as “the Montana of Greece.”
