There are some incredible national parks in Albania. They’re generally very accessible and are home to some spectacular nature. Here are some of my favorite parks:
1. Mount Dajti National Park, Tirana
Dajti National Park is one of the easiest national parks to visit in Albania thanks to its location just outside the capital city of Tirana.
Dajti is served by a cable car, the Djati Ekspres, which takes you up the mountain from the north of Tirana. Once you reach the top of the cable car, you’ll find a tourist complex complete with restaurants, bars, and activities.
From the top of the cable car, you can grab dinner at the beautiful Ballkoni restaurant that has some amazing views back over Tirana. Alternatively, you can head up into the Dajti Mountains to further explore the national park.
There are various marked trails from the tourist complex up into the mountains, with incredible views over the park from the summit of Mount Dajti. I loved being able to escape the city into nature in this beautiful national park in Albania.
