Discovering Europe's Last Wild River: A Journey with Albania Rafting Group
We are thrilled to announce that National Geographic Traveler recently featured an extraordinary journey down the majestic Vjosa River, led by none other than our own Albania Rafting Group. Written by acclaimed journalist Amelia Duggan, the article captures the essence of our adventure as we explored the untamed beauty of one of Europe's last wild rivers.
As the summer sun dipped low over the tranquil waters of the Vjosa, our team embarked on a 6-day expedition through the breathtaking landscapes of southern Albania. Navigating the ancient sweep of Këlcyrë Gorge, we witnessed firsthand the unspoiled majesty of this pristine waterway.
Described as the 'Paradise of a Thousand Springs,' the Vjosa mesmerized us with its cascading waterfalls and lush vegetation. With every stroke of the paddle, we felt a deep connection to the natural rhythm of the river, understanding why it holds such significance to the local community.
The Vjosa, Europe's first wild river national park, stands as a testament to the tireless efforts of conservationists and activists who fought to preserve its natural beauty. Among them is our own rafting guide, Zamo Spathara, whose dedication to protecting the river inspired us all.
Led by Zamo Spathara and our expert team, we navigated the Vjosa's turquoise waters, embracing the thrill of white-water rafting while immersing ourselves in the stunning surroundings. From picturesque channels to adrenaline-pumping rapids, every moment was a celebration of adventure and exploration.
We are immensely proud to have been part of this remarkable journey, and we extend our gratitude to National Geographic Traveler for showcasing the beauty of Albania and the expertise of our team. Join us as we continue to share the magic of the Vjosa River with adventurers from around the world.
