Hiking in Albania

Hiking in Albania covers alpine peaks, river gorges, canyons and forests, and these articles are trail guides and trip reports from across the country. Many of the routes are lightly used, and some reach villages where walking is still the main way of getting around. The posts include a foggy group hike to Maja e Vajushës in the Albanian Alps, the Dajti cable car and a walk to Shëngjergj Waterfall from Tirana, and Shebenik National Park with its old beech forest. Others describe Nivica canyon, the Këlcyra gorge on the Vjosa, and the pine forest and lagoon of Divjaka-Karavasta, home to pelicans.
