Rafting Adventure on the Vjosa River: A Thrilling Journey Through Nature

Your adventure begins with a scenic mountain drive to the breathtaking Kelcyra Gorge, one of the most stunning natural landmarks in southern Albania. Surrounded by steep cliffs and lush greenery, this is the perfect place to take in the majestic mountain views and admire the untamed beauty of the Vjosa River, the last wild river in Europe, flowing freely through the heart of the National Park.

Before setting off on the river, you will participate in a pre-rafting training session led by a certified instructor, ensuring you are fully prepared for the adventure ahead. Then, it’s time to board your raft and embark on an exhilarating journey down the crystal-clear waters of the Vjosa. This experience combines thrilling rapids, stunning landscapes, and close encounters with Albanian wildlife, offering the perfect mix of adrenaline and excitement.

After the rafting experience, you will be welcomed into a local Albanian home, where you will enjoy a delicious homemade meal featuring traditional dishes from the region. This is a wonderful opportunity to savor the authentic flavors of Albania’s mountainous cuisine while experiencing the legendary hospitality of the locals.

Following your meal, you will have free time to explore the charming town of Kelcyra, a hidden gem that remains untouched by mass tourism. Stroll through its streets, soak in the local atmosphere, and enjoy a glimpse into everyday life in this authentic Albanian town.
