Who We Are

TWO BROTHERS.
ONE UNBEATABLE CORNER OF ALBANIA.

Albania Outdoor Adventure was built on a simple belief: the best parts of Albania haven't been discovered yet. We take you to the Dibër region — to the Black Drin River, the Korabi mountain range, the ancient thermal baths of Peshkopia, and mountain summits at over 2,000 meters — places that are still raw, still genuine, still off the beaten path.

Peshkopia and the wider Dibra region are Albania's best-kept secret. No mass tourism. No crowds. Just dramatic landscapes, warm locals, and experiences you won't find anywhere else in the Balkans.

Our guides are local, our vehicles are built for the terrain, and every tour is private. No strangers in your group. Just your people and the Albanian wilderness.

This full-day private tour combines adrenaline and tranquility deep in the Dibër region of northeastern Albania — one of the most untouched corners of all of Europe. Departing from Tirana, you'll raft the crystal-clear Black Drin River near Peshkopia, drive off-road through the Korabi range to a 2,028-meter mountain summit, soak in historic thermal baths dating to the 1600s, and taste authentic Albanian cuisine in a local Peshkopia restaurant.

Dibra is real Albania — before the tourists arrive.

Itinerary

YOUR DAY, STEP BY STEP

1

Tirana → Dibër / Peshkopia

~2 hours

Depart from Skanderbeg Square in Tirana and head northeast into the heart of the Dibër region. The drive itself is an experience — winding through the Albanian Alps, past deep valleys, rivers, and traditional mountain villages that feel untouched by time. Peshkopia, the capital of Dibër County, is your base for the day.

2

Black Drin River Rafting

~40 minutes

Strap in for rafting on the legendary Black Drin River (Drini i Zi) — Albania's longest river at 285km. Crystal clear waters, dramatic mountain gorges, and the option to swim. Perfect for beginners.

3

Peshkopia Thermal Baths

~30 minutes

In the heart of Peshkopia city, just 1km from the center, relax in natural hot springs at 40°C that locals have used since the 1600s. Historically known for treating rheumatism and arthritis, these thermal baths are one of Dibra's most beloved hidden gems — the perfect recharge before the mountain ascent.

4

Off-Road to Grama Mountain

~2 hours

Board the 4x4 off-road vehicles and climb through the Korabi mountain range to Grama Lake — an arctic glacial lake at over 2,000 meters altitude. The views from the summit are unlike anything else in the Balkans.

5

Return to Tirana

~2 hours

The drive back from Dibra to Tirana feels completely different — the same mountains, valleys, and villages now bathed in the golden light of sunset. You'll arrive back at Skanderbeg Square with memories of a side of Albania that most people never get to see.

The perfect mix of adventure and nature. Unforgettable adventure with nature and adrenaline! Everything was smooth and perfectly organized, with a super friendly and knowledgeable guide. The highlight for me was rafting on the Drin River – fun, safe, and full of beautiful scenery. After that, a peaceful lunch with traditional Albanian food, then a scenic drive to a breathtaking viewpoint over 2,000 meters high. Highly recommended!

Cannot believe what these two brothers did to make this trip unique and absolutely perfect. It starts very peacefully, then you go river rafting — designed perfectly for beginners. Then a restaurant with unique Albanian food. Then a small town that is incredibly beautiful. But the icing on the cake is driving off-road to the top of a mountain at 2,028m. The view is so unique. I will never forget this day.
