Tirana/Durres: Bovilla Lake & Gamti Mountain Hike

Explore Bovilla Lake and Gamti Mountain on a guided tour from Tirana. Hike to a viewpoint, and relax by the river.
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Tirana and head towards Bovilla Lake. Pass through farmland, small villages, and canyons to reach the breathtaking lake.

Stop to take some pictures by the canyons and stretch your legs. After passing the canyons, see a 91-meter-tall dam. Climb over the dam with the car to reach the main destination.

Arrive at Lake Bovilla and admire its striking blue waters framed by rugged cliffs and untouched wilderness. After a short introduction to the area, continue with a guided walk toward the Gamti Mountain viewpoint. Along the way, hear stories about the region’s environment, local traditions, and the importance of the lake to the surrounding communities.

The hiking trail gradually climbs above the lake, offering constantly changing views as you gain elevation. With several stops to rest and take photos, the walk remains enjoyable and accessible for most travelers. Reaching the viewpoint rewards you with sweeping panoramas over the lake and mountains, an ideal place to relax, take photos, and appreciate Albania’s natural beauty.

Enjoy 2 hours of free time to relax by the only cafe in the region and take in the breathtaking views.

After, return downhill and spend some time near the nearby river area. Here you may cool off by the water, relax in nature, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Swimming in Lake Bovilla itself is not allowed, but the river provides a refreshing alternative for those who wish to get closer to the water.

Conclude your tour with a comfortable drive back to the city, leaving you with lasting memories of one of the most scenic areas near Tirana.
