[vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″ tablet_sm_width=”1″][vc_column_text]North Summit of Tomorr Mountain<\/p>\n

Tomorri Mountain, the most renowned mountain in Albania, holds great religious significance. It features a shrine on its lower south summit, which is also known as Mali i Kurbanit or Mali i Babait. The mountain consists of two main summits: the lower south summit and the higher north summit, referred to as Cuka Partizan. These two summits are separated by a challenging 10-kilometer long ridge.<\/p>\n

For those who aspire to reach the summit, it’s important to note that there is a trail, but it is still a demanding hike. The path traverses steep gravel slopes and often rocky terrain, and it involves a substantial elevation gain of over 1450 meters from the trailhead.<\/p>\n

On the return journey, there might be potential shortcuts, although they may not significantly reduce the overall hiking time. These shortcuts could help avoid encountering herds of sheep and their dogs.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind that the hike is considered difficult, with a substantial elevation gain and challenging terrain, particularly if starting from Gramsh.
