Osumi Canyons and Bogova Waterfall from Berat - Tour by 1001 Albanian Adventures
Description
How about you explore in one go two scenic water-spots and immerse yourself in the nature that comes alive at every step you take? The drive from our office to Bogova village takes 45 minutes, during which time you can enjoy the view of the small, picturesque villages dotting the area. After a short break for refreshment, you will begin a 40-minute hike towards the Bogova Waterfall, a true monument of nature, part of the National Park “Tomorri Mountain”. The crystal-blue water falls from 20 meters of height feeding a 12-meter deep pool. The spot is perfect for taking in the sun, relaxing amidst the sounds of nature, and taking an energizing swim in the crisp water before heading to the second stop: the Osumi Canyon. As we drive for the next 20 km to reach the canyon, you will journey along the legends and spiritual heritage of the area. The Canyon run for 26 kilometers, offering a unique ecosystem of vegetation, smaller streams and pools where you can swim, depending on the weather.

We had a wonderful trip to Bogova Waterfall and Osumi Canyons with our guide, Orest. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole day enjoyable by sharing interesting stories about Albania, its history, culture, and people. He created a great atmosphere, involved everyone in the group, drove safely, stopped at beautiful viewpoints, and was always ready to help us and other families during the hike and swim in the canyon. Thank you, Orest, for such a fantastic experience. We highly recommend this tour to everyone!
Our guide Ervis gets 5 stars plus, he was considerate, patient, incredibly well traveled and knowledgeable. The sites are all good with ample time. The tour loses a star because it’s not stated in the itinerary that the canyon walk is not included until June.
Good decision to Enterprise the tour with 1001 Albanian Adventures, you always had a safe feeling, we received a lot of information, alone we would not have had this great experience! Our guide (Genti??) has freed us from an awkward situation: thank you very much!!
Great experience visiting the nature od Berat and the surrounding region. Wonderful people, memorable experience that we will bring with us
The team was professional, friendly, and very attentive from start to finish. Everything was well organized — from the transportation to the timing of the activities — which made the experience stress-free and enjoyable.
Exceptional guide! Made the canyon breathtakingly beautiful with their expertise and enthusiasm. Safety-first approach and wonderful company. 10/10 would recommend!
As a solo traveller in general Albania has been very safe but this experience and these guys were creme de la creme ,very friendly and well organised !
An amazing trip to Bogova waterfall and Osumi canyon,great guide and wonderful place!! I would take this trip over and over again
Ervis the guide was great, explained everything great and made us have a perfect xìa. My bad review goes to the Enterprise that makes the trip. It started raining halfway through the excursion and we couldn't go to the waterfalls. Paying 60 euros each, just to go to the canyons. Whether it rains or not, it is not the fault of the company but if they propose a solution since we try to contact them and have not received a response...
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your kind words about our guide. We sincerely apologize for the delay in responding to your message; this was due to health reasons , that are too personal so we cannot mention here. Regarding your tour, unfortunately the weather conditions made it unsafe to continue to the waterfalls, and the safety of our guests is always our top priority. For this reason, we processed a refund for the part of the tour you were unable to enjoy. We truly appreciate your understanding and, if you feel it reflects your updated experience, we kindly invite you to consider revising your review. We hope to have the chance to welcome you again under better weather conditions.
I recommend this tour of the canyon and waterfall. It is a unique experience to cross the river Don't forget your swimsuit and water shoes... We were with family The excellent guide took the time to explain the biodiversity of the area and the geology of Osum. He really accompanied us in our activity leaving us time. The sites are wonderful!
