Hiking & visiting Pellumbas cave and Erzeni cayon
After breakfas we'll start our trip to the Pellumbas Cave .
The Pellumbas Cave, also known as the Black Cave, is an archaeological site in Albania near the village of Pellumbas.
We will travel from Tirana to Pellumbasi village with car for 45 min, then we will start hiking to our destination. The path is an average level and it’s marked. The forest, the Erzen River, Dajti Mountain and the view of the city of Tirana make it an unforgettable place . Hiking to the cave lasts about 1 hour. Once we reach the cave entrance we take a short break and go inside to explore it.
Inside is a very large space and looks like a mine. With the lighters we will see and explore the cave with its unique and fascinating look.This cave entered six well-known karsties for the existence of tires in Europe. The cave is 350 meters above sea level and forms a tunnel 70-80 meters long.
After exploring the Cave we’ll eat the food we have taken with us and relaxing on the nature.
Erzeni river has one of the most beautiful canyons in the Tirana area. It has a length of 1.08 km and lies at the mouth of Skorana. The canyon is filled with bathtubs, cataracts, cavities and straits of all shapes. Nature has created a spectacular view over millions of years.

Our experience exploring Tiranë was filled with memorable moments, especially during the cultural walking tour that introduced us to the heart and soul of the city. The accommodations were comfortable and perfectly located, making it easy to step out and begin our adventures each day. Hiking through the nearby caves was a highlight; we loved the challenge and the stunning natural formations that surrounded us. While the scenic routes were breathtaking, we felt that the pacing of the tour could have been a bit more relaxed to allow for more downtime. Overall, we appreciated the blend of history and nature, which truly showcased the diverse beauty of this region. We returned home with wonderful memories and a deeper understanding of the local culture.

We had an incredible time exploring the blend of nature and culture on our recent adventure. The hiking through stunning scenery was invigorating, especially when we stumbled upon mesmerizing caves that felt like hidden gems. Our only hiccup was that some of the city walking segments felt a bit rushed, but the cozy overnight stays made up for it, allowing us to unwind and truly soak in our surroundings.
