Hiking

We often get requests for a guide to take visitors hiking to the highest peaks of Dajti Mountain. Although there are roughly defined routes in the mountain and maps available from the station, only experienced hikers and those with a good sense of direction should make the journey on their own. For the majority of visitors who are not comfortable making the 2-3 hour trip up on their own, we work with a number of experienced guides who know the routes well and regularly make the trip to the top. For more information on this activity please contact bookings@dajtiekpres.com
