This hiking day trip from Tirana covers a scenic route to Lake Bovilla and Gamti Mountain, lasting about 6 to 7 hours. The tour begins with pickup from your accommodation in Tirana and a drive through the Albanian countryside featuring hills, villages, and fields. Upon arrival at Lake Bovilla, you will see the clear waters and dam before starting a guided walk around the lakeside where the guide will explain the local plants, animals, and cultural background. Next, the group hikes up Gamti Mountain along a trail that takes about 40 minutes to reach the summit. The walk includes rest breaks to view the surrounding countryside and lake. At the top, there is a wide view of the area suitable for photos or quiet observation. The descent follows the same path down to the base. At the foot of the mountain, the tour stops by a river where you may paddle or swim if you choose; swimming in the lake is not allowed. After this, there is about an hour of free time to eat at a nearby restaurant or enjoy your own food. Finally, the tour returns to Tirana with drop-off at your accommodation.
