Camping Redon

Attractions in the Valbona Valley National Park include woodland paths, the 17-kilometre Valbona–Theth trail (which starts a five-minute drive from the site and leads past several spectacular viewpoints) and the Rrogami Waterfall, which tumbles down a vertical rock face. Follow the Valbona River to the east for a swim in the crystal-clear waters of Xhemës Lake (five minutes’ drive). If you keep going, you’ll come across natural pools, waterfalls and dramatic landscapes where the river has carved its way through the rocks, such as at Shtrejt Bridge (half an hour). The lush hills on the outskirts of Deçan (an hour and a half), in neighbouring Kosovo, are home to natural pools, monasteries and a climbing route (the Via Ferrata Deçani), with spectacular views over a rocky gorge.
