Valbonë
Valbonë is a quiet little village in the north of Albania, with beautiful views filled with natural beauty and pure landscapes. At the heart of Albanian Alps, Valbonë represents the entrance to the National Park, one of Albania's most beautiful landscapes, and a perfect place to sit in the village of Valbonë. Here, the perfect setting lies in the pictures: the valley surrounded by high mountains, tall in the sky, covered with rich greenery, just perfect for hiking.
Valbonë is famous for its crystal-clear rivers, alpine pastures, and dense woodland, which furnishes numerous options for trekking, hiking, and wildlife observation. Flowing through the valley, the Valbonë River is turquoise and emerges perfectly calm for fishing and picnicking. One of the most visited is probably the trail from Valbonë to Theth, which provides panoramic views towards the surrounding peaks and valleys.
There are also cultural assets in Valbonë, appearing in the form of stone houses and small guest houses that serve as a relevant view of the former way of life for local residents. Those who visit will also be bewitched by the warm hospitality and friendliness of local residents and be able to try traditional Albanian dishes made from homemade, fresh, and most importantly local foodstuffs. The village of Valbonë offers ideal isolation with a perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural authenticity while immersing the visitor in the mountainous north of Albania.
