This fascinating, lesser-known Mediterranean country has a pristine, rugged and wild landscape. Our trek is focussed in the Albanian Alps in the north, where the past is marked by blood feuds and folklore. We explore the pristine wilderness of the remote regions of Theth and Valbonë on foot, where agricultural life has remained unchanged for centuries, offering an authentic and less crowded experience. We then have time to discover the historic towns of Berat (UNESCO World Heritage Site) and Krujë and delve into the captivating history of this hospitable country.
