Overview

This hike is unique. We spent many days over the winter of 2024/25 in the Tirana Valleys researching the route.

Unlike most Tirana day trips, our hike takes place in Tirana County itself. There is no long transfer! It is just 24km from Mother Teresa Square to the hike start point (we'll allow 40 minutes).

You'll be walking through a beautiful area that has zero tourism activity, and is not visited even by Tirana folk. We're very confident that the only people we'll meet are local villagers and shepherds.

The scenery is simply incredible. You won't believe you are just a few kilometres from Tirana.

This hike is possible to make from early September through till the end of May. In June, July and August the temperatures are just too hot for comfortable walking.

What To Expect

This is a unique hike through the Tirana Valleys that we developed over the winter of 2024/25.

You will need a good level of fitness and be prepared for some steep climbs on poorly maintained paths. The only people walking these trails are local shepherds, and us!

The hike begins with a sometimes rough climb up from the start point on little-used mule paths. After about two hours we'll reach a hidden valley, and a small village that still has no asphalt road connection.

From here the walking gets easier, as we pass through rolling meadowland to an impressive waterfall, where we'll stop for an hour or so to relax and enjoy a picnic lunch.

After lunch we make our way back to the village,, where we can stop for a drink in the small café. We aim to be here by 16.00 latest! From the village we catch the local bus (16.30) back down to asphalt. This is a bumpy 1h ride! However, if you still have energy we can walk down (approx 4.5km downhill).
