Theth National Park

The road into Theth is the first test — single-lane, switchback after switchback, and locals drive it fast, so the descent genuinely rattles first-time visitors even though the tarmac itself is decent. Once there, the short walk to the Blue Eye spring past crystal-clear water is the classic outing, while the fitter crowd tackles the four-hour climb to the mountain pass, a steady uphill grind rewarded with alpine views. A basic riverside restaurant covers a full meal, coffee and drinks for around 15-20 euro, and with 2,124 reviews averaging 4.8, locals now recommend starting hikes before the coach groups arrive.
