Aug 5, 2014 | Blogs from Albanian Alps

The road to Theth was first constructed on 1936 and is known as the first rural road with mainly touristic purpose. In the last 20 year no reconstructions was made and only last year 2013 was approved and started a reconstruction project for just a segment, Boge – Qate e Thores, that don’t give a definitive solution to the problem. Reconstruction works started in 2013 financed by Albanian Development Fund. The works started again this summer after the interruption of the last winter till to the works conclusion  that will be probably by the end of this touristic season, in November when the roads get closed again from the snow. The road gets closed every day from 10.00h to 16.00h ad this will go on for all the season.

The road Shkodra – Theth is 72 km long, done in a three hours trip, where the last 14km are the most difficult ones are still non asphalted and this part is not covered by the reconstruction project. Till now the road from Boga toward Thethi was asphalted in its first 5 km and the works are on progress for the other 7 km. Last 10 km are not going to be asphalted but for this touristic season they were reconstructed from Albanian Development Fund and actually Thethi is reachable by normal cars till to its village center.
