Discover a haven of peace in the Albanian Alps on this excursion to Theth, exploring the small village surrounded by nature.

Theth Tour

At the agreed time, pick-up from your hotel in Shkodra will commence as we head north to Theth, a natural paradise in the Albanian Alps. Be prepared for a stunning experience.

Before reaching Theth, we will stop at the Qafe Thore viewpoint, an old guard station offering a panoramic view of the Theth valley. The journey continues to the historic mountain village of Theth.

Upon arrival, we will visit a bujtina, a local hostel that exemplifies the traditional side of Theth. Established in the 17th century by Albanian Catholics as refuge from the Ottoman invasion, the village has remained largely isolated for over three centuries.

Next, we will explore Theth on foot, visiting its church and iconic tower houses, including the church of Theth, built in 1892 and renovated in 2005. The Reconciliation Tower, linked to traditional family feuds and blood revenge 'gjakmarrja', will be a significant highlight. The tour will also feature the stunning natural environment that surrounds Theth.

Finally, we will return to your hotel in Shkodra after eight hours of sightseeing.
