Review of a five-day self-guided trek through Theth, Valbona, and Koman Lake, with mountain hikes, guesthouses, transport, and practical tips.

“Brilliant trip, can’t recommend it enough. The hikes are beautiful with stunning mountain landscapes. Blue eye was a great swim! The hike over the pass is a trip highlight! Also the last day hike in Valbona as there were very few people on the trail compared with the first 3 days. The homestays were lovely and the hosts so friendly and kind. The food they prepared was delicious and filling! Brikena organised everything so well we always knew what we needed to do and kept in touch with us. We felt well looked after. Thank you!”
