Welcome to Tirana! You will be met at the airport and dropped off at your hotel. Tirana is not only the capital of Albania, but it's also the largest city with the most vibrant and lively life in Albania. It is a city characterized by its young age and the contrasts which can easily be noticed. Above all, it is the crossway of different periods of Albanian Modern History. Overnight at the Hotel.

Be ready for an early start as we leave around 05:00 to drive towards Lake Koman to catch a ferry that departs at 09:00 to the other side of the lake, Fierza. Driving from Fierza to Valbona will take around 45 minutes, and will pass through Bajram Curri. Lunch break in Valbona and hiking in Kukaj, a very remote area in the Valbona Valley.

Also known as the Big Day of the tour, we now set off on the thrilling hike from Valbona to Theth following the ancient path that the locals have been using for years. Back in the day it was only possible to travel from Valbona to Shkoder on foot, taking two full days of walking! Walking on this path, we will pass through the oldest part of the village where people are still living in their more than 100-year-old stone houses that are remarkable remnants of the past. The 18-km trek offers spectacular views of long rocky valleys and lush green forests. We will stop for lunch at one of the traditional cafés along the way. Theth will amaze us with its unique nature, history and tradition. Its symbol, the “Lock in Tower” is living proof of the past and history. Overnight and Dinner at the Guesthouse.
