Travel to Papingo
One of the joys of Papingo is its remoteness - so the journey has to be considered part of the holiday! Papingo lies over an hour's car journey north of Ioannina.
Travel to Ioannina: You can get buses or fly to Ioannina, but after that public transport gets a bit slim.  
Onward travel from Ioannina: The Ioannina Bus Station website looks promising. There are two buses on a Tuesday to the Papingo villages, leaving Ioannina at 5.30 a.m. and 2.30 p.m. A taxi journey is possible, if a little expensive [about 50 Euros].  Car hire  is available both from Ioannina town centre and from the airport. A car is essential if you want to tour the whole of Zagoria. However, there is also a delight in being footloose and independent! Some people still get around by hitch-hiking.

If your pack is light then you can bus to Monodendri [possibly more frequent than the Papingo buses] and then spend a day or so walking the Vikos Gorge which passes to the south of Papingo. See Walk 14 in the 3rd edition. Of course you can book with a travel company; excellent tours are provided bySherpa Expeditions
