Description
“The Peaks of the Balkans Trail is like a patchwork quilt of my past adventures, weaving together the best bits from trails and travels. Picture the steep, lush green hills of Thailand, challenging trails reminiscent of Corsica’s GR20, and the serene beauty of lakes and pine trees found in Norway. This trail seamlessly integrates these diverse elements, creating an unparalleled tapestry of natural wonders that rivals any scenery I’ve experienced before.”
Finally, a no-nonsense hiking guide of the Peaks of the Balkans-trail! This long-distance walk takes you to the steep mountains of Montenegro, Kosovo, and Albania. Some extra calf muscles wouldn’t hurt, but the vistas you get in return are simply unforgettable. The content of this guide is based on my own experience on the hike in the spring of 2023, with some fun personal touches here and there.
The content includes:
-A day-to-day breakdown of the hike
–Overview maps for each day
–Elevation profiles for each day
-An overview of the facilities in each guesthouse/hotel along the route
–Contact information for guesthouses/hotels along the route
–Handy tips I wish I had known
-QR codes for more information about the hike (like what to bring, how to get there, where to buy food, etc.)
-A (first published, so far!) guide to the winterroute between Theth and Valbona
–Sudokus (can’t miss those, duh)
-And of course, much more… 🙂
In the bundle option, you will receive the guide both digitally (compatible with phone/laptop/iPad/e-reader) and in print, delivered to your home. The book is printed on A5-paper, in a printing house that works 100% CO2-neutral, located in Belgium.
