Albania

Albania offers one of the most rewarding yet least explored walking experiences in the Balkans, where rugged mountain landscapes and strong cultural traditions remain largely untouched. As you travel through the country, stories of its past, from Ottoman resistance to the legacy of the communist era, are still visible in everyday life.

In the Albanian Alps, you follow historic trails linking remote villages across the Accursed Mountains, including the dramatic valleys of Theth and Valbona. With limited road access, these routes retain a genuine sense of remoteness, supported by traditional ways of life.

Alongside the landscapes, Albania’s Mediterranean influences reflect its position in the Balkans, just 75 km / 47 mi from Italy. Guided walks here offer a deeper, more connected way to experience one of the Balkans’ most intriguing destinations.
