You need a lifejacket for this hike!

Back in 2021 we did a rafting tour of the Osumi River Canyon here in Albania. It was a lot of fun with some great scenery.

At this time of year the water levels are too low to do rafting, so instead they run guided trekking tours through the canyon. You don't need hiking boots though... you need a life jacket for this hike!

It was about an hour and a half drive to get to the departure point. Then, they get you all suited up with neoprene wetsuit pants, a helmet, and a life jacket.
