  • Peaceful site on the shores of Lake Ohrid, with lake beach
  • A 10-minute drive from Pogradec and 15 minutes from Lin
  • Fishing area, kitchen, and restaurant serving freshly caught fish
‘Fish camp’ is the literal translation of the name Camping Peshku – and it’s a most fitting moniker for this peaceful site in colourful gardens on the banks of Lake Ohrid, 10 minutes’ walk from the village of Udënisht and 10 minutes’ drive from the larger town of Pogradec. It’s not just the lakeside setting that lends this Vlorë site its name – it’s more the dedicated fishing area where guests can try their luck at catching something tasty to cook for dinner at the communal kitchen. If you’re not so skilful with a fishing rod, you needn’t miss out – site staff are pretty nifty at catching critters for the restaurant’s grill (and, as a bonus, leaving it to the experts means more time for you to spend relaxing on the site’s lake beach or picking a spot to gaze out at the views). And what views they are, for Lake Ohrid is a most scenic place to hang out. If you’re not content to sit still on site, you can hire boats to potter about and see a bit more. There’s also bike hire for those who’d like to work up an appetite by taking a ride on the 15-kilometre path that passes the site en route to the pretty village of Lin and the natural waterways of Drilon (although you can also do these trips by bus if you’d rather). For time spent on site, facilities include a wifi connection, a launderette and a toilet block with showers.

Local attractions

The lake’s the big draw of course, so you’ll want to max out on as many views as poss. Start by heading along to Pogradec (10 minutes’ drive), a resort town with a sandy beach to sprawl on, then keep going to Drilon (20 minutes) to wander among canals and gorgeous greenery. Turn sights north instead and it’s a 15-minute drive to the little fishing village of Lin, to see its ancient mosaics before a lake paddle and a fresh fish lunch by the water. For one of the lake’s most famed sights, the stunning St Naum Monastery, your half-hour drive will need to involve skipping over the border into Northern Macedonia. Away from the lake, other days out might include hikes in the Prespa National Park (45 minutes), a pilgrimage to the royal tombs of Selca e Sipërme (an hour and a half) or city wanderings in Korçë (50 minutes), the pretty ‘Paris of Albania’. Start at the country’s largest Orthodox cathedral, then move on to arty museums, a famed brewery and lots of little cafés and restaurants.
