Kisha e Thethit (Église de Theth) walks
The meadows of Denelli
Above Theth, the Shala River, forests and cliffs squeezed between massive limestone peaks, there is an idyllic mountain pasture. This is a little-used route from Theth that leads to the ruins of old sheepfolds. The mountain pasture is full of flowers in spring and summer, when you can see herds of sheep grazing there
Theth - Maja e Zorzit
Circular route from Theth to the Maja e Zorzit summit
This is the sister hike to the famous return route to Valbona, on the opposite side of the valley.
But whereas the route to Valbona can be somewhat lacking as it is mainly through forest with a single viewpoint at the summit, this circular loop of equivalent difficulty is much less frequented and, above all, offers numerous and varied views of the Theth Valley to the north, Shala to the south, and the Ukut massif and Bogë Valley to the west, as well as the Grunas waterfall to the east.
Allow at least 6 hours or so, including a few breaks.
The ascent does not present any particular technical challenges and allows everyone to set their own pace (note: the reverse route, however, involves a technical descent!).
The return descent route can easily be shortened or extended depending on your fitness level, as it runs close to the road, which remains quiet.

Valbona to Theth - Winter path
A beautiful mountain hike with stunning views of the two valleys and the mountains. It’s all uphill until you pass the peak, after which it’s all downhill (half dirt path, half rocky terrain). You might see cows, horses, and donkeys in the second half.
