Nowadays, the growing demand for rural tourism has transformed existing and new paths into one of the main development axes of the areas they cross. This paper aims to map the Derveni trail, the historical path that used to connect the port of Sagiada with the city of Ioannina, focusing on the parts in the Municipality of Zitsa. In this context, historical travel records and road indicators were used in combination with state-of-the-art technical standards. At the same time, the possibility of its usage as a form of alternative tourism is studied and the importance of its promotion is analyzed, using methodical actions and best practices.
