11:30 – 13:30 Explore the city of Tirana Tirana, the heart and capital of Albania, like all other European metropolises has a never-ending movement and energy. Tirana is relatively a new city founded in 1614 by Sulejman Pasha of Mullet. The city began to grow at the beginning of the 18 century, but it remained an unimportant town until it was proclaimed Albania’s capital in 1920. Today Tirana is not only the most populated city in Albania but also the most important political and economic center in the country. An area known as “Blloku” because the villas of the communist elite were based here, has become the hotspot of nightlife in the capital with trendy bars, pubs, cafes and nightclubs. In recent years the dull communist-style buildings have been altered by an artist turned Mayer, through the ingenuous idea of painting their facades in bright colors, and abstract patterns.

The hike is spectacular, taking you along a spectacular landscape of rivers, pastures, and mountain slopes. The last leg of the hike involves a 15-minute climb of an intermediate level so be prepared with your best, non-slippery shoes. Although the journey is not especially easy, the reward, as it often happens, is well worth your time and energy. *From Nderlysa to the Blue Eye it takes 40 minutes -1 hour of walk one way, among which only the first half is more difficult to climb while the second part is easy walking in the middle of the beech forest to get surprised then by the blue eye.
