Thethi National Park

Thethi National Park spans across 26.3 square kilometers of the Albanian Alps, featuring deep valleys, dense forests, limestone cliffs, and mountain peaks.

The area received national park status in 1966 to protect its ecosystems, marking a significant step in Albanian environmental conservation efforts.

The mountain communities within the park maintain traditional Albanian highland customs, including distinctive architecture and local shepherding practices.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails connecting different sections of the park, with the Valbona Pass trail leading to neighboring Valbona Valley National Park.

The park contains specific karst formations such as the Grunas Canyon, while providing habitat for endangered species including the Balkan lynx.
