Step into the life of a Çoban (shepherd) and experience the untouched beauty of the Albanian Alps with this immersive 2-day journey. Starting from Tirana, you’ll travel to Theth, a secluded village nestled in a valley surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks. Far removed from city life, Theth offers a deep connection to nature and tradition. Here, you'll spend the day as a shepherd—feeding livestock, learning to milk animals, gathering herbs, and even trying your hand at cheese-making alongside locals.
Theth’s charm lies in its authenticity and rich history. During your stay, you’ll take guided walks to explore key landmarks such as the ancient Lock-In Tower (Kulla e Ngujimit), Theth Church, and hidden waterfalls tucked into the rugged landscape. Along the way, you’ll hear stories that have been passed down through generations, gaining insight into the cultural roots of this remote community. As the sun sets, enjoy a hearty traditional dinner by the fire and rest in a cozy guesthouse, surrounded by the peaceful sounds of the Alps.
This one-of-a-kind journey is the perfect blend of cultural immersion, nature, and simple pleasures. Whether you're walking through alpine meadows with your flock or sharing a homemade meal with locals, each moment connects you to a slower, more grounded way of life. Ideal for travelers seeking authenticity and depth, this trip leaves you with lasting memories and a heartfelt appreciation for Albania’s highland heritage.
