Valbonë–Theth Hike over the Pass

The classic crossing of the Albanian Alps and one of the most famous day hikes in the Balkans. The trail climbs from the valley floor to the Valbona Pass at around 1,800 m, with sweeping views of the Accursed Mountains, before descending into the neighbouring Valbonë valley. Most walkers do it in one long day, often with a guesthouse pick-up at either end.
