Getting There
-
Car
If you are traveling by car, head towards Kukës town and follow the signs for the SH6 road towards the border with North Macedonia. Continue on SH6 for approximately 30 kilometers until you reach the village of Bajram Curri. From there, take the local road towards the village of Çerem, which is about 20 kilometers away. The road will take you through scenic landscapes. Once you reach Çerem, you will see signs directing you towards Mt Korab. The last part of the journey will require a 4x4 vehicle or hiking, as the road becomes less maintained. Parking is available near the trailhead.
-
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a bus from Kukës to Bajram Curri. Buses run regularly, and the journey takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Upon arriving at Bajram Curri, transfer to a local taxi or a minibus heading to Çerem. This should take another 30 minutes. Once in Çerem, you may need to hire a 4x4 vehicle or join a local tour group to reach the base of Mt Korab, as public transport does not extend directly to the mountain.
-
Hiking
If you prefer hiking, you can start from Çerem. The hiking trail to Mt Korab is well-marked, but it is essential to be prepared with proper hiking gear, water, and snacks. The hike is moderately challenging and takes about 3 to 5 hours depending on your pace. Make sure to check the weather conditions before setting out.
