Itinerary description

Beautiful hike in the Albanian Alps.
Some springs are dry during July/August which you have to keep in mind when wild camping like we did during this hike.

Some section of the hike I lost GPS signal that's why it doesn't follow the trail.

If you want to climb the highest summit, the last lake in the valley make for a great campsite but bring water filter since the spring was dry and the lake had still water.

    hello a query, the return after climbing the maja jezerse from the last lake to connect with the road that reaches theth could you tell me if it is a good road, it is rocky, etc., that is, from where they were camped to connect with the road that is going to theth or vusanje, km 57 a 60, thanks

    Hi, the trail from maja jezerse to theth i good but fairly steep. When you reach the theth valley the road is quite bad until you cross the river. I would actually say that the road is bad all over the theth valley unless you have a big 4x4 vehicle

    it's nice? They say that from vusanje to theth is one of the most beautiful stages? you go from camping in the last lake to catch the valley of to go to theth, I hope it is also very beautiful, and not have to return to vusanje to go to theth, greetings

    Hi Simon, long time ago since you posted this hike, but we are thinking about doing exactly this trail in the coming days. Do you recommend it, and was it good to do with a backpack? Would love to hear from you! You are one of the only ones we can find with the same plan :)
