From the three-day programme of the municipality's tourist guide, here are a few more places that have no page of their own.

In and near town

The Faik Pasha Mosque, which the guide considers the oldest Ottoman monument in Epirus, was once part of a charitable complex. Peranthi hill, the Plane Tree of Ali Pasha (a protected monument since 1976) and the natural baths of Chanopoulo, 5 km from the town, are close.

A little farther

Orraon is an ancient settlement of the 4th century BC with a particularly well-preserved house with walls 5–7 m high. The Roman aqueduct, 50 km long, supplied Nikopolis and took more than 30 years to build. The Pournari dam is 107 m high and, according to the guide, the second tallest in Greece. Other places: Lake Ziros with its red clay hills, Kommeno, the port and lighthouse of Kopraina and the Xirovouni trails.
