Shëngjergj Waterfall & Sunset Dinner from Tirana

Hike to a hidden waterfall, then watch the city lights come up over dinner

This five-hour tour from Tirana combines a moderate hike to Shëngjergj Waterfall with an evening meal at a local restaurant. After a 45-minute drive to Mount Dajti, you walk 20 minutes through lush vegetation to reach the 30-meter cascade, where you can swim in summer months. The tour ends with sunset views of Tirana and pizza at a restaurant in town, plus a drink of your choice.

The experience

The day starts with hotel pickup at 3pm and a drive toward Mount Dajti. The waterfall sits 45 minutes from central Tirana, far enough out that the landscape shifts from urban to forested. Once you arrive, a 20-minute walk on an easy trail brings you to Shëngjergj Waterfall, where stratified rocks frame the 30-meter drop and spring runoff feeds a pool below. The water is coldest and most powerful in spring, when snowmelt swells the flow. Summer brings calmer conditions and the chance to swim. Light refreshments are included during this part of the tour.

After the waterfall, the group heads to a local restaurant timed to catch Tirana's sunset. You'll sit with views of the city while eating pizza made on-site and drinking your choice of beverage. The restaurant is the stopping point for the evening: no additional stops or activities after dinner. Once finished, the driver takes you back to your hotel, arriving around 8pm depending on traffic.
