Itinerary description
|
[EN] If we want to reach Ceremu, a small town located on the Valbona Valley, we have essentially two options:
- trail (before we approached Ceremu, its beginning, is the point where we started and finished our trekking).
Distance: 6.5km
Max. height: 1200m
Min. Height: 700m
According to the description from the information plate, this is the "easy" route (easy). Generally, I would give her a slightly higher level of difficulty, i.e. "medium". The path sometimes leads quite steeply up, you have to pass through bushes and high grass. The higher, the trail markings are sometimes less visible. The trail reflects at some point from the trail and reaches the river. This is the result of our little straying, thanks to which we could cool off a little at the river. Therefore, if you go there during the summer season, we also encourage you to visit the river.
Later, the trail connects to the gravel road and together they reach Ceremu. Cerem itself is partially abandoned buildings, and in some houses people still live; there is also a hotel with 12 beds; there are pubs (coffee, cold drinks).
- gravel road from Kijak passable for cars with higher suspension (old Mercedes more or less calmly there). The route is much more scenic than the trail; along the way there is a spring with water (next to a beautiful glade, perfect for camping).
From the gravel road towards the village of Valbona comes the shortcut (which, moreover, we went down to the asphalt leading in front of the valley), clearly visible and marked.

[ENG] If you want to go to Cerem, located above Valbona Valley, you can choose between two options:
- marked trail (we are begging is where we started and ended our trek).
According to the description of the header board is the "easy" way. In general, I would give it a slightly higher level of difficulty, maybe "average". The path leads sometimes quite steeply up, you have to go through the bushes and tall grass. The higher, the trail markings are sometimes less visible. Our track leaves for a while. This is the result of our little astray, so we could cool off a bit by the river. Thus, if you choose to get there in the summer season, also feel free to visit the river.
Later, the marked trail connects to the gravel road. Cerem. In the village you will find a lot of buildings, and some people still live. Also you will fins hotel, which has 12 beds and some small bars.
- Gravel road from Kikaj passable for cars with higher suspension (old Mercedes more or less calmly drove up there). From the road you have more view than the marked trail. Near the road is a spring meadow (next to a beautiful meadow, ideal for camping).
From the gravel road towards the village of Valbona, there is a shortcut (which, moreover, went down to the asphalt from the valley), clearly visible and marked.
