    The hike leads us on a ridge immediately on the border between Albania and Montenegro. This opens up numerous views. At the same time, we experience an archaic world with remote hamlets.

    Roadbook

    From Lepushe eastwards parallel to the Dobkut stream (tributary of the Lepushe stream) going uphill – keep left from the main path. On the map, this is path no. 15. Between 1,800 m and 1,900 m altitude, we pass the remains of the hamlet Korkules – from here continue on path 16a to the Gurit Ngut pass (1,943 m). Now always along the ridge northwards to the Trojanit summit (Maja e Trojanit, 2,194 m) – bypassing some rocks on the eastern side (this is already Montenegro – but today the border is only visible in places). From the Trojanit pass, the path is numbered 16b.

    From the summit back to the Trojanit pass and from there westwards (path 16a,b), from Cundra e Trojanit (approx. 1,950 m) southwards and from Qafa e Tute (approx. 1,800 m) westwards again. Through several valleys until above Lepushe (just over 1,300 m altitude) and then through several pastures back to the main path.
