Trip through AlbaniaLately someone send me an email to let me know that there was a German guy who is mountainbiking from Greece to Lago di Guardia, in Italy which on his way there will also pass through Albania.

Immediately I was reminded of a friend of mine who, together with some friends, just a few months ago, took a similar trip from one end of Albania to the other.

In short, the German guy’s name is Stuntzi. he doesn’t really know where to ride through albania….

He is doing a live-report of his adventures in a mtb forum (mainly german, but lots of pictures): http://www.mtb-news.de/forum/showthread.php?t=396385

There is also an support-thread in an bosnian forum:

Maybe you have deep knowledge ‘about trails for mtbing in Albania or know the right people who can help this guy to find a way through….

    Stuntzi is looking for good and/or cheap hotels in Leskovik an Korce.
    Anything you readers can recommend?

    thanks!

      Korca itself as a city offers relatively good deals, so if he asks in the center of the city they should be able to direct him to good places. I hope this helps.

    HI,
    i am planing a trip from Maldavia through Albania and than to Monte Negro. You trip seems fantastic. I was just wondering which maps did you used for planning as there are many mountain/ off-road sections rather that road which I prefer as well.
    Can you please let me know, how you proposed your route?

    Thanks A lot.
    Michal
