Fighting the desolation, our mountainous settlements present perceptible increase of visits in Western Voio, by people that are interested in another type of tourism close to the nature and low budget. The reasons of this new situation are many: the beautiful artificial lake at Vithos, the mapping of the stone bridges, the interventions in the villages' character by the Local Authorities, the travel guides that have been developed, the continuous attempts to present these areas by the Ecological Movement of Kozani, the Egnatia Street, the thematic events at the villages, as well as, the public interest for another way of tourism more alternative, close to the nature, the history and the culture of this area.

The project entitled «Sustainable tourism development by constructing a footpath network in Kozani prefecture» with action area the Voio mountain, is coordinated by University of West Macedonia and is funded by the Region of West Macedonia in the frame of the PINDOS Project, during the last two (2) years and is main objective is the enhancement of this strength. The website is translated in three languages and has already become the main touristic gate of Voio, exceeding 100.000 visits during the last 18 months, while is continuously enriched with data from the region such as maps, photos, scientific articles and tv shows. The first three (3) footpaths will be soon available for a call for tenders, while the other studies for 9 more footpaths in the region are in progress and will be connected with the first ones that have been corrected in the frames of this project, forming two great networks of footpaths with a length of 120 and 70 km, respectively for Voio and Askio mountains. The relative tv show is in its final performance and the travel guide (in three (3) languages) is also in progress.
