Rugova Canyon
Periodo migliore per visitare
Early morning or late afternoon is ideal for the visit, when the sunlight casts dramatic shadows on the rock wall. The weather is most favorable between May and October, while in the winter months some sections of the trails are covered in ice.
Consigli per il budget
The gorge visit is free, you only have to pay for the use of the suspension bridge (approx. 3-5 euros). It is worth staying in nearby Peja, from where the valley can be reached by bus or taxi in 20 minutes.

Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: Il canyon, lungo 25 chilometri e profondo 650-1000 metri, si trova nelle montagne del Prokletije. Il canyon fu scavato nel corso dei secoli dal torrente di Peja, che ne ha fatto uno dei migliori scenari per il rafting nei Balcani.
Punti salienti: Nel canyon si trova il ponte sospeso Gryka e Rugovës, lungo 642 metri, sotto il quale si spalanca un burrone profondo 130 metri. Attraversando il ponte si ha la sensazione di camminare nell'aria, mentre il fragore del torrente riecheggia tra le pareti rocciose.
Consigli da insider
- Wear waterproof shoes, because you have to wade through the stream in a few places during the hike.
- It is worth going to the Gryka e Rugovës suspension bridge at sunset, the colors and lights are stunning.
- Don't miss the detour leading to the Vlashnjë waterfall, which is a 20-minute easy walk from the main trail.
- It is best to come on weekdays, because Kosovo tourists flood the valley on the weekends.
