Hiking Tour of Valbona, Theth & Blue Eye, 3 Days from Tirana

Discover the best of Valbona and Theth on this multi-day, multi-stop tour with your guide. Enjoy included accommodation, meals, and all transportation, including ferry tickets.
This active multi-day tour of Valbona and Theth in the heart of the Albanian Alps takes you to Lake Koman, Valbona Valley, and the quaint village of Theth. Enjoy scenic nature and Albanian hospitality alongside a personal guide. Your private trip includes lodging, meals, and all transportation.

Day 1: Tirana – Koman Lake – ValbonaLeave Tirana early to drive toward Koman Lake in time for the ferry that departs to Fierza at the other side of the lake. Since 1985, this manmade lake has been the only way locals who live in the area can get in touch with the modern world.
Driving from Fierza to Valbona, travel for approximately 45 minutes, passing through Bajram Curri, the municipality of the area. Enjoy a lunch break in Valbona and hiking in Kukaj, a very remote area in Valbona Valley, where you’ll get to see how locals make their living.
At the end of the day, stay overnight at the guesthouse.
Day 2: Hiking from Valbona – ThethAlso considered the big day of the tour, set off on a thrilling hike from Valbona to Theth following the ancient path that the locals have been using for years. Back in the day, it was only possible to travel from Valbona to Shkoder on foot, taking two full days of walking.
Walking on this path, you’ll pass through the oldest part of the village where people are still living in their more than 100-year-old stone houses that are remarkable remnants of the past. The 18-km trek offers spectacular views of long rocky valleys and lush green forests.
Stop for lunch at one of the traditional cafés along the way and choose to stock up on snacks. After trekking for about 7-8 hours, you’ll arrive in Theth. Spend time admiring Theth’s unique nature, history, and traditions, including the village’s symbol, the Lock-In Tower.
Stay overnight and have dinner at the guesthouse.
Day 3: Theth – Blue Eye - Shkoder – TiranaSituated around 10 km from the centre of Theth, this natural water pool is the main destination of the third day. With a depth of 5 m and icy waters (5°C), the Blue Eye is formed by the erosion of rock by the water that descends from the mountains. Picnic lunch at the Blue Eye and return to the guesthouse in the afternoon.

Leaving Theth behind and driving for around 3 hours we will reach Shkoder, the biggest city of the Albanian North. Free time in Shkoder and return to Tirana in the evening.

The tour can also be done the other way around, starting from Theth, which does not change anything but the direction of the tour.
