Albanian Coastal Trail

The Albanian Coastal Trail is a rugged multi-day trek traversing the Ionian coastline of the Albanian Riviera. Bounded by the Ceraunian Mountains to the east and the Ionian Sea to the west, the route connects the high Llogara Pass to the coastal town of Himarë and beyond to Lukovë. The trail is defined by its transition from high-altitude pine forests to isolated pebble beaches (Gjipe, Grama) and ancient Orthodox villages. It operates in an underdeveloped coastal wilderness zone where significant segments lack road access, requiring self-sufficiency and navigation through dense Mediterranean maquis and karst limestone terrain.

The Greenway del Lago di Como (Greenway Tremezzina) is a primary 11km (6.8-mile) pedestrian route following the western shoreline of Lake Como, Italy. The trail connects the villages of Colonno and Griante, utilizing segments of the Antica Via Regina (ancient Roman road), lakeside promenades, and historical agricultural tracks. The environment transitions through the centers of Sala Comacina, Ossuccio, Lenno, Mezzegra, and Tremezzo. The route provides consistent views of the Central Lake area and is characterized by paved alleys (ristreci), stone staircases, and managed parkland surrounding historic 18th-century villas.
