More to see around Koman

Theth Village Centre Theth · Albania Theth village centre is the practical base for exploring a dramatic valley of stone houses, guesthouses, river scenery and high peaks. Allow time simply to walk between the church, lanes and valley viewpoints. Theth Church Theth · Albania The small stone church is Theth’s most recognisable landmark, framed by steep mountains and open meadows. The exterior setting is usually the main attraction. Grunas Waterfall Theth · Albania Grunas Waterfall is reached on foot through the Theth landscape and drops into a rocky basin. The walk, river views and changing terrain are as important as the waterfall itself. Blue Eye of Theth Theth · Albania The Blue Eye of Theth is a vivid natural pool fed by mountain water near Nderlysaj. Reaching it requires a proper walk with uneven sections rather than a roadside stop. Nderlysaj Stone Pools Nderlysaj · Albania At Nderlysaj, the river has carved smooth pale rock into channels and pools. It is a useful stop before or after the Blue Eye hike and can be enjoyed without completing the full trail. Valbona Village Valbona · Albania Valbona village is a spread-out mountain base rather than a compact centre. Its strength lies in valley views, river scenery, guesthouses and access to walks of different lengths.
