Itinerary description

This was a point to point bike ride after enjoying a day on Cape Rodoni. At the tip there is an interesting castle commissioned by George Skanderbeg around 1450, a number of communist era bunkers and tunnels, and a few hiking trails along the coast. Very quiet in the off season.

    Hi Ben, I keep a MTB with me on my car and usually bike one way and get picked up. Are you looking for road biking or mountain biking? Happy to share routes and maybe connect sometime.

    Sounds great Ben, will do. The shop Bike Doctor is great at servicing and has all sorts of info on trails. They are collaborating with UNESCO on some trails from Krabe - Elbasan and elsewhere. Worth a look. I did this, which is doable from Tirana - https://www.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/spatialArtifacts.do?event=setCurrentSpatialArtifact&id=122996023
