Highlights
  • Lake Bovilla - Boville Lake is one of the beauties that Tirana offers. We will leave from Tirana in the direction of Boville where we will make the first stop in the canyons of Terkuza where we will understand the beauty that this place offers.

After enjoying the canyon we will reach Boville Lake to start climbing Gamti mountain. It will be a short hike up surrounded by green scenery, where every pass is like a stage of the theatre where Bovilla lake makes it a fantastic view.

After we reach to the top or as it is known as the white stone the energy that place has is so impressive.

After we spend some time we start walking down to reach Bovilla lake shore for another perspective of the view it offers.

We will spend some time by the lake and then around 15:00 we start to come back to Tirana.

Additional Information

A single-day excursion to Boville Lake from Tirana provides an excellent opportunity to immerse oneself in the beauty of Albanian nature. The enchanting scenery of the lake nestled amidst mountains will enhance the climbing adventure up the Gamti Mountain. This experience kicks off at Boville Lake, followed by the ascent of Gamti Mountain. The climb lasts for only 30 minutes, but the vistas are likely to render you wordless. After descending the mountain, we will have some leisure time by the lake, and if you’re daring enough, you can take a dip in the frigid waters.

Just amazing views! - One of the must see places situated a few miles from Tirana city centre. I'm still in awe of how magnificent and spectacular the views are. We had a really friendly and knowledgeable driver/ guide with us. Best decision to visit the place in the afternoon considering the weather and lesser tourists. Highly recommended!

Top experience - It was very nice, the guide was super friendly and had super much knowledge about the country and its history. Once we arrived at the mountain it was a small climb to the top and the view was beautiful, you have more than enough time to admire it and then we had a drink at the bar that sits nearby. After this we went to the lake and took a nice swim. It was all in all a top experience with a super nice guide!

Stunning views and amazing guides. (Especially Berg) - We had an absolute amazing time! We erre picked up at one of the meeting points just a 4 minute walk away from our hotel after which we drove towards mount Gamti ans Bovila lake. Our guide, named Berg told us so much about the history of Albania, its language and traditions which was really interesting. We were with a group of 7 friends and Berg, our guide, was so wholesome. We enjoyed beatiful views and had the best swim of our lives. Honestly guys if you plan on doing this, ask for Berg!!

This excursion is highly recommended if you want to see how beautiful Albania can be! - We were picked up at the agreed location at the agreed time, then we drove towards the mountains with a very nice guide. He told many interesting stories about Albania and history. Once we arrived at the mountains he took us up the mountain and we could stand in beautiful places for photos and admire the view. After the mountains we went down to find a place to swim, even the guide went into the water and had many interesting stories! When everything was ready he took us back to tirana! Highly recommended!

Stunning scenery - Wonderful trip just one hour from Tirana with outstanding natural beauty. Lovely to see how well preserved the area is. We are very thankful to Bergi who made everything easy for us, from driving us in his comfortable car through rough roads, to giving us a hand in the tricky parts of the hike and also for his lovely company, he is very knowledgeable and kind. At the end of the trip I forgot my iPhone in his car and he diligently drove back to us to bring me the phone back - I was so relieved and very grateful! We highly recommend this trip and we hope to repeat it when back in Albania :)
