Accommodation is not included in this experience, but two carefully selected options are available upon request, depending on how you’d like to shape your stay.
In Berat, you can stay at Castle Park Hotel, a peaceful hotel located just outside the historic center. Surrounded by greenery, it offers comfortable rooms and generous breakfasts made with fresh local products, ideal for resting before or after a day of activities.
For a more immersive nature experience, riverside safari-style glamping is available at the Albania Rafting Group base in Përmet. Set close to the river, the glamping features comfortable tents with proper beds and shared facilities, allowing you to unwind in a quiet, natural environment after an active day.
Both accommodation options are offered as optional add-ons and can be arranged in advance, subject to availability.

One of the first sights to discover is the Saint Anthony Church, a cultural monument located right by the beach and still open to service. Inside the old church, a few rows of wooden stools are overlooked by a large cross, for an interior that is both historic and updated. Once outside, we can take a stroll by the water and have our yoga class, and (weather permitting) jump right after into the sea to cool off.
Later we follow the trail back inland past the many former bunkers on the hill to get to the path that leads to the cape’s other important historical structure: the Rodoni Castle, built by the national hero Skanderberg. On either side we’ll see the precipice of the cape and the sea below, which is as intimidating as it is beautiful. The castle itself is back on the beach on the right side of the cape, so we’ll have to climb back down to reach it (make sure to wear comfortable shoes because the path is rocky and sometimes slippery). We will enjoy a picnic lunch al fresco on the blanket.
The experience is led by a professional guide certified by the Albanian Rafting Federation and includes all necessary river hiking equipment. A waterproof bag is provided for personal items during the activity.
Please keep all clothes and personal belongings packed in one backpack, making transportation easy and comfortable in the minivan.
