North
Shkodra
Albania’s cultural north: bicycles, Rozafa Castle, Lake Shkodër and the gateway to the Alps.
Shkodra is Co-Travel’s home. It is a city of photographers, pedestrians and lake light, with Rozafa Castle watching from the hill. From here, the mountains and the ferry to Koman are close enough to feel like a continuation of the same story.
Why visit
A human-scale city with deep history and easy access to the Accursed Mountains.
Things to do
Best time to visit
April to October.
