In the heart of the Albanian Alps, Thethi is not just a tourist destination, but an experience that will remain in the memory forever. From Australia to New Zealand, from France to Austria and Germany, tourists from every corner of the globe have placed this picturesque village on their list of most beloved places and the reasons are endless.

Hiking enthusiasts find Thethi a perfect haven to explore the mountain trails. Thethi is a perfect combination of untouched nature, tradition, and Albanian hospitality.

“ Waking up on a sunny day, with blue skies, surrounded by mountains, in a beautiful village like Theth, how can it not be a good day. I’m from Australia, I love Theth so much that I came to Albania 8 weeks ago and, in total, I’ve spent almost a month here in Theth, leaving and coming back again, because I love it so much. I highly recommend Theth because the houses and guesthouses here are simply beautiful and the atmosphere, the feeling here is simply magical, it’s magical, it’s mystical, it gives you warmth. You come to Theth, explore the waterfall, go for a walk to the Blue Eye, swim in the cold water, go to the mountains, eat good traditional food, drink with your friends, have coffee with your friends, it puts its own kind of magic in you and envelops you in it. I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t come back or wouldn’t want to stay longer,” said an Australian holidaymaker.

" Coming from Austria, our first impression of Theth was wonderful because we didn't expect this kind of meadow in the middle of the mountains. It's simpler, more relaxing here than in Austria ," said another vacationer.

" It's really fantastic here, we liked it a lot, it's very impressive with so many mountains, just very beautiful, " said another tourist.

Paulin Polia, owner of one of the area's popular guesthouses, says it's time for a clearer vision.

" We are reflecting, we are already realizing the value of tourism. We need a strategy on how to function because we cannot just walk here and there. The reception is good and we need to take advantage of it. We need seriousness and service ," said Paulin Polia.

Thethi also offers new opportunities for adventurers.

A spectacular zip line gives visitors the opportunity to see the village panorama from above and feel the adrenaline rush among the mountains, making the experience even more unforgettable.

" Ziipline is an attraction that you don't find in all places in Albania. An attraction like Theth, the addition of a zipline makes it even more special. Tourists from all over the world come, including Dutch, German, and recently Brazilian. For someone who hasn't tried it, it's a little embarrassing, but then it's a special adrenaline rush ," said an employee of Zip Line Theth, Enis Duraj.

With its stunning natural beauty and adrenaline-pumping adventures, Thethi continues to win the hearts of tourists from all over the world./ CNA
