Itinerary
- Day 1
Tirana to Theth
You'll get picked up from Tirana or Shkoder and drive through Albanian landscapes with wild fields, rivers, and views of Shkodra Lake as you head toward the Albanian Alps. Once you reach Theth village, there's a traditional lunch waiting at your guesthouse. From there, you can hike to the Blue Eye, a natural spring fed by mountain snowmelt. The full hike is about 18 km round trip with 700 meters of elevation gain (takes roughly 6 hours with breaks), though you can use local transport to cut it down to just 1 hour each way if you prefer. After seeing the Blue Eye, you'll head back to check out the Old Church and Lock-in Tower before settling into your guesthouse for the night.

Theth
After breakfast at your guesthouse, you'll hike for about an hour through the village to reach Grunas Waterfall. The trail passes by stone Kullas houses and takes you through rolling meadows and green fields before you get to the waterfall with its series of cascades over grey rocks.
