Transport yourself back in time on this challenge in Albania. Don’t be surprised to see people riding donkeys, old aged ladies in black carrying heavy loads of wood and shepherds walking undisturbed with their flocks of sheep as you pass through the countryside.
You will cycle along the beautiful shores of Lake Ohrid, together with soaring mountain peaks and high pastures to the sparkling vistas over the Albanian Riviera. Riding on mostly paved roads with little traffic, some steep and twisting climbs will test you, but the stunning views and swift descents will be your reward.
The climax of the trip will be to pedal up the challenging switchbacks of the Llogora Pass, gaining 1000m, on the slopes of Çika massif standing right above the white beaches of the Ionian Sea. Not only will you challenge yourself, but you will experience the hospitality of the friendly Albanian people.
