Itinerary description
Route: Dardha - Maja e Biglles se Drenoves - Dardha
GPS file: Dardha-maja-e-biggles_gps.gpx
Distance: 7,6 km
Walking time: 3 hours
Altitude: 1.250 m (min.) - 1.750 m (max.)
Difficulty: Moderate
Description:
Track leaves Dardha to the north, easy orientating along the Lugina Valley.
At the end of the valley the first steeper part of the track leads on a gravel
road down to Maja e Biglles se Drenoves. Road should be followed around
the mountain. After that, no direct path but relatively easy access to the
peak from the eastern/northeastern side. To let the hike become circular,
one should follow first the dusty timber trails orientating southeast. To find
back to the Lugina Valley, one has to find one of the (later steeply
descending) donkey paths, leaving the gravel roads. It is a bit tricky to find
them, as many sideways simply end in former timber work areas.
Hint: Easier orientation is possible by following the track in opposite
direction!
