€110 All-Inclusive
Day 1: Arrival in Theth and Exploration
- 7:30-8:00 AM: Convenient pick-up right from the hostel’s front door, so no need for an early 6:30 AM start.

- Enjoy a relaxing evening after an exciting day.
- No need to stay an extra night, unless you want to do specific day trips – there are a lot of options.
Day 2: The Big Hike
- Start the hike in the shade, tackling the most difficult and steepest part early in the day while you’re fresh and energetic. Start your hike on a typical trail, rather than starting your hike walking on big stones in a dry riverbed under the sun as you would if you started in Valbona.
- By the time you reach the Valbona Pass, it’s after midday so the sun is not that strong, making the trek more comfortable.
- At the Valbona Pass, enjoy stunning views of the Theth and Valbona Valley from 1800 meters (5900 feet).
- Begin your descent, soaking up the views that Valbona has to offer on the way down.
- Relax and unwind in the evening at the guesthouse after a rewarding hike.
Day 3: Return Journey
- Enjoy a calm breakfast.
- Around 10:00 AM: Transportation will pick you up right at the guesthouse.
- Experience the breathtaking scenery of Komani Lake on your way back.
