Voidomatis (Greek: Βοϊδομάτης) is a river in the Ioannina regional unit in northwestern Greece, and is a tributary of the Aoos river. The main current sources are located under the village of Vikos. Along its path it converges with other water currents originating from the banks of Tymfi or the Vikos Gorge and it joins to the river Aoos close to Konitsa. The river has a total length of 15 kilometers. The name Voidomatis comes from the Slavic Bode–Mat which means "good water".
Voidomatis has been characterized as one of the cleanest rivers in Europe as it does not face any environmental issues. It crosses one of the most beautiful natural locations of Greece and has been part of the Vikos–Aoos National Park since 1973. The river is spanned by a number of stone bridges and is known for water sports such as rafting and kayaking.
