Itinerary description

This our attempt to visit the Waterfall of Bogova.

The town of Bogova is getting more and more touristic place, so a couple of restaurant and hotels have been already developed. However, the leisure activities for the tourist are still on going.

We asked in the village for a nice spot to visit in Bogove and everyone pointed to the waterfall. The path starts at the entrance of the village where gravel road brings you to a big mine explotation. As soon as the road abandons the river, take the river following up till the waterfall.

In the middle of the valley we found a pretty big fenced new building that blocked our way. Agim is the person in charge of the big ranch. He opened the door and explain again the way to the waterfall... Just following the river...

At this stage of our trip we realize that the river was very high and the path did not have any bridge to cross... So we started very motivated taking off and putting on shoes and socks... At the third attempt we decided to stop for a lunch and reconsidered that on our way back we should do the same procedure shoes off and on, so we decided to turn back home...

The big rach was the industry of Tomorri mineral water, and on the way back, Agim saw our thirsty faces so kindly he sponsored our trip with a couple of Tomorri mineral water bottles. He also showed us the production center.

In the summer this track look really interesting and the river should be crossed just jumping from one stone to the other...
