About this trip
Ten days of walking through the mountains that Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro share, crossing between the three countries several times along the way. The trails move through remote, high terrain far from towns or roads, with each day bringing a different valley or ridge line into view.
This is a fully guided trek built for people who want a proper physical challenge rather than a gentle ramble. Expect long days on foot and a real sense of distance from everyday life.
