Hiking in wild Albania

Albania is a unique country and one of Europe's best-kept secrets. Here dramatic mountains with high peaks, deep valleys and wild untouched nature await exploration. After the fall of communism in 1991, the country opened to visitors, and the welcoming population makes the journey even more memorable. This exciting journey goes to the Albanian Alps, also known as "The Accursed Mountains", with the well-known national parks Theth and Valbona. You visit remote regions where agricultural life is the same as it has been for centuries. The harsh landscape, history and culture have created natural isolation through the ages – here memories of old blood feuds and rich folklore still live on.

You can choose between two programs: The one that includes Dobërdol goes highest and is suitable from June onwards as snow often remains at altitude before then. The second program works well from May onwards. It's days 2-5 that differ.
