About the Albanian Alps
Our adventure takes place in Theth Valley in the Albanian Alps. The town of Theth is known by foreign tourists as the Last Paradise of Europe. It is a village located in northern Shala Valley nestled in Theth National Park which was established in 1966 to protect the ecosystem, biodiversity, cultural and historical heritage of the region.
Known as Europe’s hidden gem, the Albanian Alps Trail Tour goes through charming villages and off-the-beaten paths through rugged mountain landscapes.
About the trip
This five-day hut to hut style adventure through the mountains is perfect for anyone. You can run it or hike it, and we will have local guides so you’ll never be alone. See a part of the world that’s mind-blowing, beautiful, and untouched. This trip includes ~50 miles of running/hiking and ~15K feet of vertical climbing. It’s an intense but fun adventure. That said, you need to be in good shape for these mountains.
