🏔️ Day 1 — Tirana / Shkodra – Theth – Blue Eye This tour departs very early from Tirana or Shkodra. As you drive toward Northern Albania you will be amazed by beautiful landscapes — wild fields, rivers, Shkodra Lake, and rugged untouched mountains. On the way to the top you pass through a steep hillside reaching 1,700 meters at Qafa e Thores — the spot with the best picture-perfect view of the Albanian Alps.

After parking at the guesthouse you explore Theth, the Old Church, and the Lock Tower — symbols of Theth with centuries of history. Around midday we organize local transport to Vaskat in Nderlysaj — the starting point for the hike to the Blue Eye of Theth. From Nderlysaj to the Blue Eye is about 30 minutes walk. Easy to moderate trail — the iridescent blue and green colors are absolutely unforgettable. Temperature just around 5°C — would you dare to dive in? Overnight in a guesthouse in Theth.

💧 Day 2 — Theth – Grunas Waterfall – Shkodra / Tirana Waking up with a magnificent view of the Albanian Alps will make you want to stay longer. After breakfast you hike from Theth to Grunas Waterfall — about 40 minutes. A curtain of white water tumbling down grey rocks in a series of mini-waterfalls. Around midday get ready to head back to Shkodra — time for lunch by the lake side. You return home full of the wonders of Albania with a new sense of excitement to share with those around you.
