During the spring, high water from melting snow makes it possible to explore the whole length of the canyon from the river. The rapids are Class II, so one does not need prior white water experience to navigate them. At the end of the summer, when the water is lower, the full length of the canyon is not navigable, but there are various walks with opportunities for swimming in various pools and streams.
Leave Tirana at 07.00. During our journey we will have a short stop before we reach the base of the Sacred Tomorr mountain. Reaching the summit on foot is an undertaking to which truly trained people can dedicate, but you will arrive at the top in comfort and safely by 4×4 car. The first part of climb you will realize how human activity has shaped the slopes and the dips of the sacred mountain. Small farms, olive groves, pastures for sheep, goats and cows slowly give way to a more barren terrain, where nature takes up more space. The cultivated land gives way to huge pine forests, which turn into beech woods as you go over 1,100-1,200 meters.
You too, arrived at 2,400 meters above sea level on board the jeeps, have the opportunity to visit the mausoleum and enjoy a splendid view. Walking around the summit of the Sacred Tomorr mountain you will discover what man’s relationship with the high lands is and why these environments have always been heralds of spirituality.

Here you will find a high falls gorge (20 meters) which rises above a series of pools.
