Key Details 🥾 Duration: 5 days Age Requirement: 16+ recommended Private Tours: Available with 2 guests minimum Travel Style: Hiking, culture, food, local exploration Accommodation: Guesthouses Transport: Included Languages: English Season: May–October recommended Trip Overview 🌄 This 5-day journey links Tirana, Kruja, Shkodra, Valbona, and Theth, with a combination of cultural stops and full hiking days. Early in the trip you explore important historical sites before travelling north to the dramatic landscapes of Koman Lake and the Valbona Valley. The main hiking day crosses the well-known Valbona Pass, a route used by local highlanders for generations and now considered one of the region’s most scenic mountain trails. Accommodation is in small guesthouses that serve homemade food and give you a closer look at rural life in the Alps. Your luggage is transported as needed, leaving you free to enjoy each day with just your essentials. The final day includes time by Shkodra Lake before returning to Tirana to finish the trip. Location 📍 This route covers the northern part of Albania, known for steep mountain ridges, villages accessible only by footpaths, and national parks that protect wildlife and traditional rural landscapes. Valbona and Theth sit within protected areas where agriculture is small-scale and guesthouses blend into the natural surroundings. The journey via Kruja and Shkodra gives you a broader picture of the region’s history. Kruja is closely tied to the country’s resistance legacy, while Shkodra is known for its arts, lakefront, and Illyrian heritage. Travel between each location is by private vehicle arranged for the group. Prerequisites ✔️ This trip is designed for travellers in good overall fitness who enjoy consecutive days of hiking. The distances are moderate, but the Valbona–Theth crossing involves elevation gain and uneven surfaces. Previous hiking experience is recommended, especially for the longer day. Participants should bring suitable boots, a backpack, wet-weathe… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Transport for the full itinerary Accommodation and meals listed in the programme Airport transfers on day 1 and last day (with flight details provided) 4 breakfasts in guesthouses Car insurance Koman Lake ferry Guided hiking throughout ### What’s not included Travel insurance Flight tickets Extra meals not listed Any optional activities not included in the itinerary ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs _No FAQs in catalog._ ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/IMG_1170-scaled-1.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 13 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
