Tour Plan: A Step-by-Step Journey
Your Prenj Expedition Itinerary
A challenging and rewarding multi-day mountain traverse.
Your journey begins with a morning pick-up and transport to the trailhead. From there, we begin the strenuous ascent, hiking for several hours through forests and into the alpine zone. Our day ends at a mountain hut, where we will have dinner and rest for the challenging day ahead.
This is the main event. After an early breakfast, we embark on a full-day trek across the heart of the Prenj massif. The goal is to summit one of its iconic peaks, such as Zelena Glava (2155m), navigating challenging ridges and enjoying panoramic views. We will end the day at another mountain hut, tired but with an incredible sense of accomplishment.
After breakfast at the hut, we begin our final descent. We will hike out of the high mountains and back towards civilization. Our transport will be waiting to take you back to the starting city, concluding an epic expedition.
