You’ll head north, venturing deep into one of Albania’s most rural villages, with stunning views of towering peaks and lush greenery along the way. The first stop is Thora Pass (1,700m), where you’ll marvel at panoramic vistas of the Albanian Alps before descending a scenic road framed by dense forests.
Arriving in Theth, your hike starts with a visit to the village’s church, followed by the ancient Lock Tower, where you’ll uncover the intriguing history of Lek Dukagjini’s Kanun, a medieval code that shaped Albanian tradition. From there, a one-hour hike through forest trails and alongside the crystal-clear Theth River brings you to the breathtaking Grunasi Waterfall, plunging 30 meters from the mountains.
