A week of hiking in Theth Valley, Albania in April 2019.

After a flight to Pristhina, Kosovo, I took a bus to Sköder in Albania close to the Accursed Mountains. My plan was to stay with one of the families living in Theth Valley and explore the mountains around.

Just after landing in Pristina, I learned the main road from Sköder to Theth was still blocked by snow. The only way to get to the valley was a long, 7 hour drive on a bad road with a 4-wheel drive. My host promised to come and pick me up spending a full day driving.

It all felt really remote, and I liked it.

There are about 25 families living in the valley, and over the winter, they are basically isolated from the rest of the world. For my hosts, picking me up was the 2nd time visiting town since last autumn.

I was told there are more hikers passing through during the summer. This time of the year though, I was completely alone. Exactly what I came for.
