Guided hiking adventures around Përmet
Our hiking adventures reveal a side of Përmet that most visitors never see — quiet mountain trails, hidden waterfalls, traditional villages and viewpoints over the Vjosa valley. Every route is led by a professional local guide and can be adapted to your group’s fitness and pace.
Featured trails
The signature walk leads to the Sopot Waterfall through forest and open mountainside. For something different, the Langarica canyon and Benja trail combines dramatic gorge scenery with the famous thermal baths, while gentle village walks take you through authentic hamlets with panoramic views. Whichever you choose, your hiking adventures are built around what you want to see.
Difficulty and what to bring
Routes range from easy village strolls to half-day mountain hikes, so there is something for most abilities. Bring sturdy shoes, water, sun protection and a light layer; we will advise on the right trail and timing when you book. Hotel pick-up in Përmet is available on request.
Combine hiking with the river
Because everything is close together in the Vjosa valley, it is easy to combine a morning hike with afternoon rafting, kayaking or a relaxing stop in the Benja thermal baths — a full day of nature and adventure.

Good to know before your hiking adventures
A little planning makes our hiking adventures around Përmet smooth and enjoyable. Here are the practical details guests ask about most before setting out on the trails.
How fit do I need to be?
Our hiking adventures range from gentle village walks of an hour or two to longer half-day mountain routes such as the trail to the Sopot Waterfall. You do not need to be an experienced hiker — just reasonably comfortable walking on uneven ground. When you book, tell us your group’s ages and fitness and we will match you to the right trail and pace.
What should I bring?
For most hiking adventures we recommend sturdy closed shoes or trainers with grip, water, sun protection (hat and sunscreen), and a light layer in case the weather turns. In spring and autumn a waterproof is wise. We will tell you exactly what to expect for your chosen route, and your local guide carries a basic first-aid kit.
Can I combine hiking with other activities?
Absolutely — that is one of the joys of Përmet. Because everything sits close together in the Vjosa valley, many guests pair a morning hike with afternoon Vjosa rafting or kayaking, or finish the day relaxing in the Benja thermal baths. Tell us what you want from the day and we will plan a combination that flows well and suits your timings.
