Mali i Gallushit

When days become short and cold, the wider Tirana region still offers short and interesting hikes.  

 Mali i Gallushit, though relatively close to Tirana, will always instill a feeling of remoteness, especially when approached from Tirana. The villages on the western and southern slopes, facing the Adriatic Sea, orient themselves towards Peqin, the capital of the same-named district belonging to Elbasan region. But rural life seems to have little changed over the past years, and many anemities of modern life are still far away.

Mali i Gallushit has a rather steep face on its northern and eastern side, with deep ravines and steep, weathered ridges, which make for very interesting excursions for the intrepid hiker who is not afraid of heights. Mali i Gallushit, with 747 Meter altitude, is the highest point between the Tirana - Elbasan asphalt road and the Mediterranian, with fantastic views when the weather is fine.
