North Tour

Those who walked to the Albanian Highlands come back as a changed person. There's something about the stillness up in those mountains that calls to the quiet, forgotten corners of our humanity. It brings memories from our ancestors, those who first trod these ancient landscapes - from a time before time, when man lived with nature and her seasons in perfect synchrony. The Albanian Highlands is for serious hikers. There are difficult treks and steep passages that will require some expertise and experience. Though challenging, the reward of such a precious experience is worth it. Not many come this way, but those who do find that the hike is a pilgrimage, and the journey is within. If you think that Albania has only gorgeous beaches to offer visitors, think again. One of the most beautiful things to do in the Land of the Eagles is to spend time relaxing, surrounded only by nature, in the country’s amazing mountains. Take in the sights of the largest remaining wilderness in the Albanian Alps, the most spectacular sites to see in the Balkan trail. Hike up ancient paths and gaze upon untouched and never-inhabited backcountry. This tour involves steep hiking and rough camping. Adventurers with a little bit more experience will get the most of this famous walk.
