I believe spring or at least early autumn is the best seasons to go to Zagoria because in winter the weather is bad up there. It is snowing, it is very cold, trekking paths are sliding and the river is too cold for rafting. I suggest early April or late October, when there is not much snow (you may find some in high altitudes) and it will be more easy to drive or go trekking from one village to the other or to monasteries. There are a lot of nice monasteries in
Zagoria, all old and with nice environment. Some have no nuns and others have two or three. Most beautiful villages are Aristi, Papigo and Monodendri. The hosues are really remarkable and I like that all houses have yards in front. Organize some activities for you. Trekking Hellas has good organization and many sports.
