This is a hike for experienced hikers. The path has not been used for a long time and some passages are pathless or trees have fallen due to forest fires. A great hike in the middle of untouched nature. There is no water on the way.The descent in Kozhnje is steep and mostly pathless. The last 3km is an old gravel road

Bogë - Razëm

The trail starts in the center next to the Hotel Kulla e Arte. You climb some stairs and then you come to the gravel road that connects Razem with Fushe e Zeze. You walk along this road for about 6km. You climb comfortably and you can see the field of Razem and the beautiful landscape all around. After 6km you come to a flat field and the path separates from the main path and you turn slightly to the right. After a few minutes you come to a hut and the path goes up on the left side of the hut through the forest. When you come out of the forest, you see an old road that was previously used for logging. You have to be careful because for 2 kilometers the path is sometimes a road and sometimes a shepherd's path and you have to follow the markings. On the Qafa e Zeze pass you can see the valley of Boge and the high mountains that border the valley. If you want, you can make a detour to the summit Maja e Boçanit. There is no real path to the summit and there are no markings. From the pass there is a pleasant descent towards Boge. Sometimes you can see a path, but most of the time the descent is pathless and you have to orientate yourself according to the markings. The way down is a bit demanding and it is mostly on rocky terrain. The area used to be wooded but has been badly damaged by fire and you rarely pass a beech tree. Instead of forest, different plants have now grown, sometimes over a meter high and you have to walk through them, although it looks like there is no way. 1.5km before you reach the village, you come to a road again and you walk along this road until you reach the village.
