Summit With Panoramic Views

Highlight • Summit

It's worth making the short detour to the summit. It's best to leave your backpack at the bottom, as there's limited space and a bit of climbing.

Valbona Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Think of a sun hat, at 38 degrees we had sunstroke and take enough water with you - after the last café before the summit there is no more water source for about 6KM ... in the heat ...
Sometimes very steep climbs are good if you've trained 🤪 but it's worth it 😇

View of the Valbona Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Sure-footedness is required here because of some mountain slides. The view of the surrounding mountains is different every few meters.
