About the trip
This escorted cycling holiday with Explore Worldwide traces a route across Albania that stretches from Lake Ohrid in the northeast to the Ionian coast in the south. Starting in Tirana, the capital known for its eclectic architecture and open-air market, riders head three hours east to Pogradec and cycle along Lake Ohrid’s blue waters before working up to the high mountain passes around Germenj. Wooden cabins and farm dinners invite a pause in the forested Gramos Mountains.
