Hiking and Camping at the Kollagjeshi Lakes

The Kollagjeshi Lakes, located in the southeast of Tirana, lie above the village of Vakumonë at an altitude of 1,157 meters, in an area known for its natural beauty and ecological importance.

The trail begins with a 620-meter elevation gain through a chestnut forest, where the majestic Mali i Fagut (Beech Mountain) at 1,446 meters rises into view.

These lakes are part of a rich ecosystem and offer a very relaxing landscape, with clean, calm waters surrounded by forests.

The two lakes and the surrounding area are perfect for nature activities such as hiking and birdwatching while on the move, providing opportunities for relaxation and connection with untouched nature.

This is one of those natural gems not far from the city, yet it offers a great escape from the daily routine.
