The area includes the mountain range of the Athamanian Mountains (Tzoumerka).The Athamanian Mountains are located in the north-western part of South Pindos, between Thessaly and Epirus. They are one of the largest mountain ranges in the country, with a length of more than 30 km, and together with Mount Lakmos (Peristeri) they form a single geographical unit oriented in space from north to south. Kakarditsa (2,429 m.) is the highest peak of these mountains. The Aspropotamos (Acheloos River) crosses the Athamanika Mountains in the Geopark area. The area is very important for large birds of prey, most notably the Golden Eagle and the Griffon Vulture.
