Kapesovo (Greek: Καπέσοβο) is a village in the Zagori region (Epirus region), it is 43 km north of Ioannina. The name Kapesovo is Slavic and means garden. The village used to be more south near Baya (Kipi), where many vegetables were grown and it was called "Kapouska". It was later moved to its current position for health reasons. There is a big cliff next to the village called "Kapesios" (a Slavic word that means cliff) and the name of the village might be related to it.[2]
The village is near the Vikos canyon, the view of which is spectacular at certain spots.
