Dajti - Escape to Nature

#springwander Looking to escape the city buzz of Tirana? The Dajti Ekspres is the perfect getaway. Just a short drive from the center, this cable car (the longest in the Balkans) whisks you up Mount Dajti in about 15 minutes, offering panoramic views over Tirana and the surrounding countryside. The ride itself is peaceful, gliding above forests and hills, with each moment revealing more of Albania's natural beauty. At the top, you’ll find a restaurant with a rotating platform, hiking trails, and even mini golf. It’s a great spot for a relaxed half-day trip – whether you’re looking to walk through nature, take in the views, or enjoy a quiet lunch with the city far below. On a clear day, you can even spot the Adriatic Sea in the distance. Tip: Go in the morning for the best visibility and avoid weekend crowds. It's a refreshing contrast to the bustle of Tirana and a reminder of how close nature is in Albania. #balkan #naturalwonders #thingstodo #travel
