Itinerary description
A legendary hike from Valbona to Theth in Albanian Alps. This is moderately difficult hike (depends on your fitness) through stunning Valbona Pass. This hike is only a day hike and can be completed with 6-10 hours (also depends on your speed and distance) but it requires 3 days in your Albania itinerary. I have written down the guide that will help you prepare for this hike. Follow the link below.

Just be ready for at least 4 hours walking. Anyway its so nice and beautiful
4 hours is very fast:) our moving time was 6 hours, but we were going at a slow pace with lots of stops:)
I did it twice, 6 hours first time, with lots of stops, taking pictures... then 4 hours to come back after a couple of days. Amazing track :)
waw, nice, you got to do the trail twice :)
The hike is nice and very popular. However, it's not 'legendary' or particularly beautiful.
Actually it's way too touristic. Especially the ferry on Komani lake is incredibly crowded in August.
I'd recommend either to go straight to Theth and do hikes from there or go instead to lesser touristic places in the Albenian Alps.
