Sulfur cave, difficult access
7402, Glinë
Been here?
4x4 access only
Getting here needs an off-road vehicle. Check your ground clearance before setting off.
A wild riverside camping area beside a sulfur cave at the entrance to a canyon, with several possible places to stop. Access is difficult because the direct route has been washed away, requiring a way through the bushes and possibly several fords. The thermal springs are currently lukewarm, around 26°C, and there are no services.

A really lovely place. We drove along the riverbed—we did not reach the exact coordinates of this location, but there are many beautiful places to spend a night. To reach the riverbed, you have to take the path through the bushes because the direct route has been washed away. The “hot springs” are more warm than hot, but still worth it.Translating
Very nice spot! The hot springs where a little disappointing because they were more cold. Very beautiful area though. Almost everyone can drive to the large pool if you’re adventurous. Maybe you have to cross 2 or 3 small streams. The ground is compact and with stones. There was a large camper. But be prepared for a bumpy road. Enjoy!
Super beautiful place. We did not drive through the fords and parked and slept a little farther ahead, but several locals in normal cars managed it. Beyond the thermal springs there are more interesting caves farther back, accessible only via the river.Translating
Great view, lukewarm water, only a few locals present. Extremely quiet. Access is not easy but possible. Park the vehicle, then follow the path on foot along the river to the spring. We had a perfect afternoon, but it is possible to stay overnight.Translating
Nice and wild place, but springs only luke warm (maybe 26 °C). Several fords, we dared with our 2WD and succeeded. Best to park next to the big pool at 40.0975,20.6729, you can go until 40.0968,20.6738 but no further. Other nice springs at 40.0958,20.6768 (hard to access) and 40.0983,20.6733, cave at 40.0962,20.6789 not accessible now. Hikes with great views. Find everything on OpenStreetMap.
wow! the only mistake you can do is not to be prepared to stay for a few days, so change your plans, fill up water, buy food and let go of your mobile phone. this place is perfect.
What an incredible place! No 4x4 is necessary; we simply could not reach the indicated point because of the water. Wonderful thermal baths. This place is a real highlight.Translating
No need for a 4x4 for this place, Practically to the finish there is a new asphalt narrow road and the last 1km is a newly repaired stone road. Two smaller fords but with a safe base...
