River Hiking in the Osumi Canyons, Skrapar (on foot) - Top 10 Albania Tours

The Osumi Canyon is one of our must-go Albania Tours! It is a 3 million year old canyon, also named as the Colorado of the Balkans, with its 12 km trail and walls reaching up to 120 meters. It is going to give you an unforgettable sight, as one of the best places to visit in Albania!

The hike down the Osumi Canyon is going to last approximately 2-3 hours varying on the experience, size and desires of the group.

Going through the canyon, you are going to witness its unique ecosystem. The caves and different shapes of rock formation are going to astonish you, as there is an island not far from the starting point where you can jump and get some nice adrenaline rush.

The stories and legend of this place are vast, so along the way you are going to hear them. And this is not all, the canyon has a surprise for you: you are also going to be joined by several waterfalls, with its mightiest being the love waterfall.

After you climb up your way to the road, the minibus is going to take us to a local restaurant, where you are going to taste the best Albanian food.
