Begin your adventure with an early morning pickup from Tirana or Shkoder, heading north through breathtaking landscapes of wild fields, rivers, and the dramatic Albanian Alps. As you approach Theth, the scenery becomes increasingly rural and untouched, with the chance to see aromatic lavender fields in late spring. The journey includes a scenic drive up to Qafa e Thores, offering one of the most spectacular views of the Alps.

After a short refreshment break, set out on a guided hike to the famous Blue Eye, a natural spring formed by the melting snow of the mountains. The trail is moderate, covering 18 kilometers with a 700-meter elevation gain, and rewards you with the mesmerizing turquoise waters of the Blue Eye. Brave souls can even dip into its icy waters, which remain around 5 degrees Celsius year-round.

Upon returning to Theth, settle into a traditional guesthouse and explore the village’s historic sites, including the old church and the iconic Lock-in Tower. The evening offers a chance to relax and soak in the tranquil mountain atmosphere, preparing you for the next day’s adventure.

Wake up to the stunning views of the Albanian Alps before enjoying breakfast at your guesthouse. The day begins with a moderate hike to Grunas Waterfall, a beautiful cascade that tumbles over grey rocks, creating a curtain of white water. The trail is about 6 kilometers round trip with a gentle elevation gain, making it accessible for those with some hiking experience.

After experiencing the natural beauty of the waterfall, return to Theth and prepare for your journey back. The drive winds through the mountainous terrain, gradually descending towards Shkoder or Tirana. As you leave the Alps behind, you’ll carry with you unforgettable memories and a newfound appreciation for Albania’s wild landscapes.
