Hundreds of kilometers of gravel bar wilderness without a dam or power plant. Newly discovered animal and plant species by the dozen. A constantly changing river floodplain. Europe's youngest River National Park. The Vjosa – Wild river of superlatives. We'll take you with us! For a whole week we paddle from the Greek border to the Adriatic. Endless surges in the pristine river landscape, cooking together on the gravel bank, recharging your batteries in the 1000 Star Hotel. Come with us on the adventure!

Important:
Weather and water conditions may require short-term changes to route and river selection. Although June in southern Albania is rather dry and mostly sunny, as always there are a few rainy days possible. The water supply of the Vjosa is sufficient in any case. If the water levels are unexpectedly too high, we will shorten the river journey and add daily stages.
