Itinerary description
For this challenging day tour - more technical then length-wise - you climb straight opposite of Përmet into the hills. After an initial asphalt section the road becomes a dirt track with some short steep sections, so either you challenge yourself here or push and enjoy the view. After a turn-off to the left the track deteriorates into a rough tractor road with some rocky parts, so not very easy to ride. But – besides the challenge, wilderness and view over the valley - you soon reach the old village of Zleushë, which has some very old houses, witnesses to the history of the region. After that it`s all downhill to the main asphalt road of the valley, which brings you back to Permet. But short before reaching the asphalt; don’t miss the beautiful old church in the village of Kosinë. This day was “into the wild”! You find no water/food along the route, so equip yourself before starting.
