Highlights
  • Mount Tomorr - Start off the day on a 4x4 Jeep and go hike the Tomor mountain. Once we get to the Tomor mountain area, we will head to the lake to enjoy some Kayaking and Stand Up Paddle.

Mount Tomor is one of the most revered and respected mountains in Albania because it served as a residence for the Pelasgian-Illyrian gods since ancient times. Tomor is considered to be the house of the gods, which is why it is called the “Holy Mountain,” as a mountain with supernatural powers. This is why locals go up to the top of the mountain to pray and meditate.

A picnic lunch is also included in this experience. It’s the perfect way to explore the sacred mountain while taking in the spectacular mountain scenery!

Additional Information

Engaging in Kayaking and Stand Up Paddle at the lake of Tomor, in the spiritual mountain of Tomor, is truly awe-inspiring. Tomori is considered the most mysterious and unique mountain found across Albania. It has been dubbed the ‘seat of the gods’ due to its majestic height, allure, ferocity, and enigma.

Local legends suggest that Pelasgian Dodona, also known as ‘Harsh Winter’ Dodona, once ruled this land. The area is occupied by persistent snow-prone zones and a multitude of water springs, some bizarrely like the Monster (Kuçedra) spring. Tradition whispers that a monstrous entity manipulates this spring, controlling and cutting off its water supply at will. Tomor houses two beautiful lakes, like twin treasures cradled in its core. These lakes, enveloped by verdant wildlife, aged villages, towering mountain peaks and rolling hills, are a small heavenly retreat nestled in the vast mountainous terrain of Tomor. The most exhilarating way to appreciate this beauty is through sports such as kayaking, stand up paddle, and swimming.

Albanian Adventure 6 days - It was a fun trip with the Albanian Rafting Group. IAlbania is truly beautiful. Alma and her team are very helpful and friendly. The guest houses we stayed in were perfect. Simple but clean and set in stunning locations . We did different activities every day. The river walking was excellent . It is like canyoning - floating along the river and jumping off rocks. The food in Albania is outstanding - very fresh , healthy and tasty. All locally produced. Overall all an amazing trip which I would highly recommend.

The views... MamaMia those views dude! - The views... Holy Moly were they something to behold! The guides were excellent! Very friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. The hike was amazing (the sun was very strong but we managed), after the hike we went to the most picturesque lake I have ever seen. Here we kayaked, swam and paddle boarded for a number of hours, whilst the guides cooked us up a picnick in the shade. 10/10 would highly recommend. Also learned a lot about the histories and legends of the mountains and castle of Berat! The drive was borderline a rolarcoaster with how offroad it was but that added to the fun Hahaha.

Complete package - The complete package: lots of adventure, relaxing and fun interaction with the guides! The 4x4 brings you to amazing views and through surprising roads (at times felt like riding a rollercoaster). We were a groups of friends and could not have had a better activity for our first day in Berat, would not have booked it anywhere else! We did 4 hours of 4x4, 2 hours of hiking and 2 hours of swimming with a very good and fresh traditional lunch. Perfect price for what we got. Thank you so much to the crew!
