My fifth day in Albania continued in the beautiful mountain town of Theth in the Albanian Alps! Come along with me as I try some Albanian Alps food and explore an ice-cold waterfall and mountain attractions in Theth, Albania!

My morning in Theth National Park (Parku Kombëtar i Thethit) with my friends at Travel Albanian Alps was off to an amazing start.

First, I met up with my friend Andy from Travel Albania Alps at Logu i Harushave, our guesthouse in Theth. I tried some rakija and then we set out to explore the area. Along the way, we passed by the Kisha e Thethit, or the Church of Theth, which dates back to 1892!

Then, it was time to hike along a rocky path to the waterfall. I suggest wearing hiking boots, but my sneakers held up fine. Then, we crossed a bridge with some missing planks. You have to be careful crossing it!

On the other side of the bridge is an old house with lots of branches piled up outside. Nearby was a map of the park. I drank some water from a stream and continued down the path. We passed a cow and a tiny waterfall and climbed some boulders to get our first glimpse of Waterfall Theth.

The waterfall was gorgeous! I took off my shoes to wade into the pool below the falls. The water was frigid! It was so icy! I had to stand on a rock after 20 seconds because my feet were freezing! My feet were numb afterward!

Then, we headed back to town. The hike was a bit tougher because of the rocks and the steepness of parts of the trail. We passed some tourists on the way and only took 20 minutes to get back. Then, we stopped at a wooden bar with an amazing view of the mountains and valley. Their rakija was light and smooth!

Next, we visited Lock-In Tower, the defense tower of Theth. It was built on a huge boulder, so the floor is rock. Upstairs, we met a man who played a traditional instrument for us! On the third level is more carpet, a small chest, and tiny windows where archers would fire at invaders. There was also an old rifle! The tower dates back over 400 years!

Then, we headed back to the guesthouse for lunch. We had a tomato-and-cucumber salad, fried potatoes, goat cheese, homemade yogurt, grilled vegetables, cheese-spinach-and-onion byrek, baked potatoes, and local beef. I also had some rakija!

The cheese and potatoes were amazing. The beef was delicious and gelatinous and went well with the yogurt, and the cigar-shaped byrek was hot and fresh!

The roasted red pepper and eggplant was also outstanding. It was the best beef I’ve had in Albania! The byrek was also the best I’d had so far! It was crispy and the combination of cheese, onion, and spinach was next-level!

The guesthouse’s cottages have mirrored windows so you can’t see inside, but people inside can see outside. The cottages are all wood and have a king-sized bed and a spot to hang your clothes. There’s only a glass wall separating the room from the bathroom, so you can see into it! It was incredible. It was like a nice mountain cabin!

I loved the guesthouse. I also saw one of their rooms, which has a king-sized bed and a twin bed. Further upstairs were more rooms with two twin-sized beds and a king-sized bed. The bathrooms were all really clean and nice. But the best part about the guesthouse was the amazing view of Theth and the sound of the mountain wilderness!
