Women Only - Albanian Alps Expedition (20th - 27th September 2026)

£1,400.00

This is a journey for the bold for women who love the feel of their boots on mountain paths, who crave the challenge of big climbs and the joy of shared adventure. Over eight unforgettable days, we’ll trek through the Albanian Alps and the Accursed Mountains, cross remote borders, and discover a region where wild nature meets deep tradition.

From village to village, through forests, waterfalls, and high passes, we’ll experience the real soul of Albania: its warm hospitality, its rich history, and its untamed landscapes. Expect long hiking days, laughter-filled evenings, and that incredible sense of achievement that comes from pushing beyond comfort and finding your stride in the mountains.

Immersive Experience

We’ll stay in family-run guesthouses, share home cooked meals made from local ingredients, and hear stories that have travelled generations. We’ll explore Theth and Valbonë, two of Albania’s most iconic alpine villages, where stone towers stand among wildflower meadows and rivers run glacial blue.

Along the way, we’ll visit ancient castles, hike to hidden waterfalls, cross mountain borders, and float across the surreal turquoise waters of Koman Lake often called the “Albanian Thailand.”

Every day offers something new: cultural discovery, spectacular scenery, and moments of reflection you’ll carry home long after the trek ends.

Make no mistake this is an adventure that will test and reward you. Expect full hiking days (between 5–8 hours on the trail), with ascents up to 1,100m and daily distances averaging 10–16km. The terrain varies from rocky mountain passes to soft valley trails, always surrounded by breathtaking views.

You’ll need a good level of fitness and a sense of determination but you’ll never walk alone. Every step is shared, every climb supported, and every summit celebrated together.

This is the essence of Team GC: strong women, strong minds, and shared moments of triumph.
