Route "Qafa Bordolecit - Vukel"

This route climbs from Qafa e Bordolecit toward Vukël, deep in the high pastures above Vermosh, Albania's northernmost village hard against the Montenegrin border. Expect long, exposed stretches above the tree line, grazing sheep and the occasional stone shepherd's shelter, with views that stretch ridge after ridge across the Albanian Alps. It's built for travellers comfortable with sustained walking rather than a short afternoon stroll, and the window for a reliable crossing runs from May to October before the high passes close with snow.
