Most travellers reach Valbona by the Komani ferry; this route comes in from the northeast through Tropojë, the valley's home district. Two days of alpine pasture and mountain villages, ending on the great reservoirs of the Drin around Kukës.
Bajram Curri, the gateway town, then up into the Valbona valley and its national park — the braided river, the alpine pastures, and the old villages of Dragobi and Çerem.
Panoramas over Lake Fierza, one of the largest reservoirs on the Drin, and Kukës — the town rebuilt above the rising water in the 1970s — before the road home.
