Tour Plan

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 a minibus 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 are going down to the village (around 45 min ) and going back to Tirana .

    We had an exhilarating time exploring the rugged trails leading to the impressive cave and the ancient fortress, which offered breathtaking views. The guide was knowledgeable and kept the pace just right, though a bit more time to soak in the scenery would have been nice. Overall, the combination of hiking and history made for a memorable day, and we left with a deeper appreciation for the area.

    Exploring the stunning Pellumbas Cave and climbing up to Petrela Castle was a highlight of my trip around Tiranë. The hike was invigorating, though I wish the transportation to the starting point had been a bit smoother; it felt a bit rushed.
