Surrounded by unspoiled landscapes, traditional stone paths, and native woodlands, this activity invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature through one of its simplest and most rewarding pleasures: foraging for seasonal wild fruits.
Guided by a knowledgeable local, you’ll wander through the serene hills and fields surrounding Hani i Qerosit, where nature still thrives in its most authentic form. As you walk, you’ll learn to identify a variety of edible wild fruits—such as blackberries, wild cherries, rose hips, and cornelian cherries—depending on the time of year. The guide will also share stories, folklore, and traditional knowledge about the local flora, including their historical uses in food, medicine, and rural life.
This hands-on experience offers much more than just fruit picking. It’s an opportunity to deepen your understanding of the region’s botanical heritage, explore sustainable practices, and appreciate the delicate balance of the local ecosystem. You’ll receive a traditional basket to collect your finds, and throughout the walk, there will be chances to taste the fruits you gather—straight from the source.
Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with family, this activity is suitable for all ages and fitness levels. It’s especially ideal for families with children, nature lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, or curious travelers looking for an authentic and off-the-beaten-path experience in Albania.
Reconnect with the land, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and enjoy a peaceful, educational, and interactive adventure that highlights the rich biodiversity of the region. This is more than just a tour—it’s a cultural experience rooted in tradition and respect for the land.
