Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed

That is also when I did it. It was September 2022

Thankyou! this was October :)

I did this trip from Shkoder about a month ago. Valbone to Theth hike. I stayed at Guest House Zadeja in Shkoder approx £20 per night. They will also store your main bag for €2 a night while you do the trek. They arranged pick up from their lodgings for the bus and ferry and then bus to Valbone which cost €25, you pay the bus driver. I stayed at Bujtina Selimaj in Valbone £22 including breakfast either to eat at the lodging or they will pack it for you to take and eat on the hike. The coach driver when we got off the ferry asked us all individually where we were staying and dropped us off outside our respective lodgings. Walk to Theth is stunning. Stayed at Bujtina Vellezerit Grrela in Theth £33 with breakfast, and they arranged pick up by (you have to ask)mini bus back to Shkoder for €10. I arranged all the accommodations myself through booking.com, obviously you can find cheaper or more expensive to suit your pocket. Bring snacks from Shkoder, there’s not really much in the way of shops in Valbone or Theth that I could see, but there are a couple of cafes on the hike. I didn’t do the Blue eye or the waterfall due to time constraints. But you would have to stay in Theth another day for that, so obviously factor in another nights accommodation. Hope this helps. Thoroughly recommend, it’s stunning.

The hostel package only covered transport and that was 2000 leke if I remember correctly. You will have to take extra cash to pay the guest houses

Thanks for sharing! @@pursuetheadventure
