Itinerary description
Most people hike from Theth to Valbona or the reverse, but I opted to do a return trip from Theth to Valbona Pass as I didn't want to take the ferry to/from Valbona and I think you get the best views from just above the pass anyway.
I started from a guesthouse about 2km north of Theth center, so walked about 15 mins south to the trailhead. From there, the trail is well marked and easy to follow. There's a fair amount of shade on the way up and the day I went it was a bit overcast, so it was chilly at the viewpoint. At the pass, Valbona is to the left and the viewpoint is straight.
