Vermosh - Lepushë

Vermosh sits at Albania's northern tip in the Kelmend highlands, and this walk to Lepushë follows the open valley the two villages share — wide hay meadows, scattered wooden guesthouses, and the Cem river shadowing the path much of the way. It has none of the drama of the Theth-Valbonë crossing; the appeal is pastoral scale, grazing horses, haystacks, and mountain walls on both sides without a technical section. Locals still use stretches of this route between the two settlements, so expect sheep as often as hikers. Open May through October.
