Itinerary description
Route: Dardha - Guri i Vjeshtes - Dardha
GPS file: dardha-vjeshtes_gps.gpx
Distance: 7.0 km (including way back from waypoint 003 to 001)
Walking time: 1.5 hours (option 1) / 3 hours (option 2)
Altitude: 1.300 m (min.) - 1.500 m (max.)
Difficulty: Moderate
Description:
The trail starts in Dardha as a broad gravel road which is easy to walk.
Hike up the mountain is easily accessible. Afterwards the summit is
accessible through the woods without a clear path and without a good
view about the summit area. But if you're hiking a bit further, there is a
viewpoint (but also without a clear trail) with a beautiful view over Dardha
village. Now you can choose between two options:
Option1: Walk back the same way you hiked uphill. It would take all in all
around 1,5h.
Option 2: For more advanced hikers, there is a different and longer route
over a field, then downhill through the forest and ending on the same
gravel road near the village. The second option would take about 3h for
around 7.0 km. Basic navigation skills are required. The different types of
landscapes with changing vegetation make it an interesting alternative
hike for the way back.
