We will pick you up from your hotel or meeting point in Tirana and drive about 1.5 hours in a comfortable van. On the way, we will stop at a small market where you can buy snacks, use the toilet for free, and stretch your legs.
Our first stop is at Bovilla Canyon. Here you can walk a little, enjoy the fresh air, and see the beautiful small canyon. After 10 minutes, we reach Bovilla Lake and start the hike.
The tour guide will explain the plan and help you with everything. The walk is about 2 km in total (1 km up and 1 km down). It is not difficult hike, but in summer the heat can make it feel stronger so please make sure to have sunhat and water. If you feel tired or need help, just tell the guide.
When we arrive at the “Balcony of Bovilla,” you will have free time to enjoy the amazing view. You can take many photos or sit quietly and relax. There is also a small bar/restaurant near the top where you can buy a drink with a nice view of the lake.
After the hike, we go back to the van and make one more stop at the river below the dam. Here you can swim and refresh (only from May to September). Swimming in the lake is not allowed because it is a protected area.
At the end of the day, we will drive you back to Tirana to your hotel or meeting point.
Important:
- The hike is easy level, but not recommended for people with knee problems or afraid of heights.
- Always tell the guide if you need help. We are happy to make your trip safe and fun!
