  • The Accursed Mountains in Northern Albania are some of the most incredible peaks I have ever seen. We did the Valbona to Theth hike leaving from Shkoder to the Koman ferry and then staying in Valbona for one night before hiking to Theth and staying two nights there. From Theth we also did the day hike to the Blue Eye which is a beautiful water hole named for its mesmerising blue colour. As autumn was beggining to roll in, all the leaves were beginning to change which meant we were treated to some very breath taking colours.

    I love the Accursed Mountains. The Peaks of the Balkans Trail was quite the adventure. Lovely people, excellent food, and incredible mountains. Glad you enjoyed your hikes.

    Did this trek on 29th June 2024! Probably one of the most beautiful treks of my life.
    We did see a lot of Aussies on the route, why is that? 🙂

    What was the cost for this 3 day package trip from the hostel?

      I did this trip from Shkoder about a month ago. Valbone to Theth hike. I stayed at Guest House Zadeja in Shkoder approx £20 per night. They will also store your main bag for €2 a night while you do the trek. They arranged pick up from their lodgings for the bus and ferry and then bus to Valbone which cost €25, you pay the bus driver. I stayed at Bujtina Selimaj in Valbone £22 including breakfast either to eat at the lodging or they will pack it for you to take and eat on the hike. The coach driver when we got off the ferry asked us all individually where we were staying and dropped us off outside our respective lodgings. Walk to Theth is stunning. Stayed at Bujtina Vellezerit Grrela in Theth £33 with breakfast, and they arranged pick up by (you have to ask)mini bus back to Shkoder for €10. I arranged all the accommodations myself through booking.com, obviously you can find cheaper or more expensive to suit your pocket. Bring snacks from Shkoder, there’s not really much in the way of shops in Valbone or Theth that I could see, but there are a couple of cafes on the hike.
      I didn’t do the Blue eye or the waterfall due to time constraints. But you would have to stay in Theth another day for that, so obviously factor in another nights accommodation. Hope this helps. Thoroughly recommend, it’s stunning.

      The hostel package only covered transport and that was 2000 leke if I remember correctly. You will have to take extra cash to pay the guest houses
