Hiking routes in Kosovo and Albania

18 routes on the real trail network, each with its distance, climb, walking time, season and elevation profile. They are also in the app, with the same figures, where you can see them on 3D terrain and take them offline.

Unverified routes. Each line follows mapped OpenStreetMap trails and was built by our own pipeline; our team has not walked them yet. When a verified organization walks a route, it will say so. Nothing here is copied from Wikiloc, AllTrails or komoot. Ski tours are not listed on the website until a mountain rescue organization has rated their terrain.
