This Classic Travida 5 day holiday includes an amazing trekking journey through four of Europe’s most exciting countries with the opportunity to climb to spectacular summits in each. In the heart of the Balkans - Albania, Kosovo, Montenegro and North Macedonia offer a rich melting pot of culture, cuisine and history combined with spectacular alpine scenery. We start our adventure in welcoming Albania and kick off the week in true KE style by summiting its tallest peak – Mount Korab (2764m). Located on the border between Albania and Macedonia, Korab sits in the Korab-Kortinik National Park. Next we head to the Republic of Kosovo with its rich traditions and simple lifestyle. Kosovo is a true undiscovered gem and we climb Mount Gjeravica (2656m), the second highest in the Dinaric Alps range. After Kosovo we cross-border trek between Albania and Montenegro through a remote and wild landscape before finishing our adventure by summiting the highest point in Montenegro – Zla Kolata (2534m). If you are looking for a new trekking holiday that is a Travida classic – dramatic peaks to summit, amazing scenery and a spot of “the undiscovered,” then this is the perfect choice!
The group will meet at Prishtina Airport before transferring (3 hours) to the remote hamlet of Radomire (1100m) in the far North-West corner of Albania. Our journey takes us along the 'Road of Nation', a scenic motorway connecting Albania to Kosovo which cuts through the middle of the Mirdita Highlands. Radomira is located at the base of Mount Korab and is the main gateway to the mountain. A cluster of houses above the village of Radomire, this is the end of the road and tomorrow we'll walk directly from our accommodation. Transferring from Prishtina Airport in the evening, we will stop for dinner at a roadside restaurant en-route to our family run guesthouse in Radomire. During dinner we'll be briefed on the week ahead.
