The lure of Lure

Everyone seems to have heard of the fabled Lure Lakes, but not many people seem to venture there. Lure village is considered remote, the road to the Lure Lakes is rumoured to be impossible, nobody talks about climbing  Maja e Kunora e Lurës (the "Crown of Lure"). The park is said to be destroyed by excessive logging, the hotel difficult to reach without any options for accomodation.

But the lure of Lura remains.

From Lure village, we took the car up to the waypoint "camp", and made an early start in the morning from there to the lakes and the mountain. This reduces the walking distance from 21.6 to 14.2 kilometers, and the time from about 9 to about 6 hours.
