Get ready for one of the most spectacular point-to-point hikes in the Albanian Alps, a journey that takes you from the village of Valbona to the remote beauty of Theth. This classic trek, taking most people between 6 to 8 hours, leads you over the breathtaking Valbona Pass, where you'll be surrounded by the dramatic, jagged peaks of the Accursed Mountains. The trail itself is a fantastic mix of challenging, sun-drenched ascents and peaceful descents through cool, shaded forests, with a few simple cafes along the way to catch your breath. It's a challenging but incredibly rewarding day that showcases the raw, untouched beauty of our mountain landscapes.
