Southern Albania
A sacred, rounded mountain massif that dominates the skyline above Berat and Permet.
Tomorr is Albania's most spiritually significant mountain, the site of an annual Bektashi pilgrimage. Its long ridgeline is visible for miles and offers serious hiking.
Mount Tomorr is best suited to hiking, pilgrimage, views. Allow 1 day to do it justice. For the most current opening hours, ticket prices and transport details, check official sources before you travel — these change seasonally.
