Description
Escape Tirana to the Funari Lakes! Swim in crystal-clear waters, kayak, enjoy scenic walks, savor a homemade Albanian lunch, then ending the day by visiting the Petrela Castle and soar on a Zip-line.

This full-day guided tour takes you to a peaceful natural paradise, where crystal-clear waters, rolling hills, and lush forests create the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor adventure.
After a convenient pickup in Tirana, travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle through the scenic Albanian countryside toward the lakes. Along the way, we can make a short stop where you can buy coffee, refreshments, or snacks and use the restrooms before continuing the journey.
Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by breathtaking views of Funari Lakes, often called the "Little Switzerland of Central Albania" thanks to their pristine waters and spectacular natural surroundings. Far from the crowds, this hidden destination is ideal for nature lovers, photographers, families, and anyone looking to experience a different side of Albania.
Spend your day however you like. Cool off with a refreshing swim in the lake's crystal-clear waters, relax along the peaceful shoreline, or simply soak up the tranquil atmosphere. If you're feeling more adventurous, explore the lake by kayak and paddle across its calm waters, discovering quiet coves and beautiful viewpoints that can only be reached from the water.
You'll also enjoy a guided walk along the shores of the main lake. The easy hike follows scenic trails through forests and hills, offering beautiful panoramic views and plenty of opportunities to take memorable photos while learning more about the area's natural landscape.

Whether you choose to swim, kayak, hike, or simply relax by the water, this experience offers the perfect balance of adventure, nature, and authentic local culture. With small groups, stunning scenery, and plenty of free time to enjoy the lakes at your own pace, it's an unforgettable escape from the city and one of the most rewarding day trips in Central Albania.
