The 15 Best Bovilla Lake & Mount Gamti Hikes

17 reviewed

An hour out of Tirana, then a steep hour on foot to a turquoise reservoir set in a dry canyon. These are the Bovilla and Gamti trips worth booking: 4x4 transfer or minibus, guided or self-paced, how hard the final scramble really is, and which include lunch in a village on the way back.

“I loved this trip! The views from the mountain were stunning and I very much enjoyed the stop at the canyon too! Paola was a brilliant tour guide. It was nice that she introduced us to some Albanian language and also to some traditional Albanian music. She also told us some very interesting facts about Albania and its history. I appreciated the list of recommendations that Paola gave us for restaurants in Tirana too. I enjoyed dinner at one of them after the trip and it was delicious! A great trip which I'm very pleased to have experienced!”
