We head toward Orosh, the former capital and spiritual center of the northern Albanian tribes for centuries. The Monastery of Alexander, once renowned far beyond the region’s borders, was completely destroyed during the dictatorship, as was the Kapedan’s palace.

The church has been rebuilt according to its historical design.

Once a place with internal autonomy under the Ottoman Empire, Orosh is today just an isolated mountain village, difficult to access and ready to be rediscovered. You will be amazed by the landscapes of bold rock formations and resilient farmland.

In the afternoon, we ascend to the “Sacred Ground” of Nenshejt, a vast karst area overgrown with vegetation and offering magnificent panoramic views.

Overnight stay in Orosh.
