  • Ferry ride between Koman and Fierza (2.5–3h, €10 pp, €30-60/car, €13/ bicycle, and €25/motorcycle)

  • Boat tour to the picturesque but extremely touristy Shala River, known as the "Thailand of Albania" (1h one way, dropped there for 4h and then return, €20 pp)

  • Paddling/wildcamping on your own (best option, although not easy to find flat terrain. for a tent). Take the ferry/tourist boat one way and paddle back, possibly staying overnight to enjoy peace and quiet ) (which is impossible during the day with all the tourist motor boats). Visit the MatoMato website for more info and trails.

To avoid crowds, it's best to visit on weekdays, especially Tuesday or Wednesday.
