Itinerary description
1200 meaters of height that really worth to climb up for having the wonderful views to the largests lakes of the Balkans - Ohrid and Prespa Lake. Valamares and Ostravica mountains can also be seen from Mali i Thate.

According our measures the highest peak of this range is in Albanian side at the peak called Pllaja e Pusit, 2288 meters (see the map above).
The gradient of the slope is relatively easy but an early start in the morning is recomanded because the hike can least 8-9 hours including brakes. The hike starts at the village of Alarup which can be reached by paved road from Pogradec town.
