Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Theth

This resurgence (Syri i Kaltër) of the Lumi i Zi ("black river") owes its name to the hues of the water that gushes to the surface in a 100^m2 natural pool: bright blue-green on the edges, reminiscent of the iris, and dark black in the center, like the pupil. You can swim here, but the water temperature is 7ºC. Surrounded by vegetation, with a café nearby in summer, the place is accessible on foot (3h from the Isolation Tower) or by 4 x 4 (the last stretch is on foot) via the hamlet of Ndërlysaj. Another possible route is from the Grunas waterfall.

This trail links Theth with Vusanje/Вусање, Montenegro, a mainly Albanian-populated market town in the Prokletije National Park. The route is part of the Peaks of the Balkans network. The first section, below Mount Harapit (2,217 m), is the most difficult, requiring you to cross the Peja pass (Qafa e Pejës), at 1,703 m altitude. The descent then takes in plateaus and Lake Ropojana. You can stop shortly before Vusanje at Gusinje/Гусиње, a village with accommodation mostly inhabited by Bosnians.
