The vast amount of unpaved roads combined with the mountainous landscape makes Albania a perfect place for mountain biking enthusiasts. The marked cycle paths are virtually nonexistent. However, there is an increasing number of routes to choose from in the GPS trail databases.
You’ll find more such routes in the Albanian Alps, where you can get inspired by a local MTB guide. Perfect conditions for mountain biking can also be found around the mountain village of Shishtavec. There is also plenty of trails around Tirana, in the Dibër Region or on the Albanian Riviera. The trail database can be found on Trailforks or Wikiloc.
If you want to rely more on agencies, mountain bike rides are organised by Albania Off Road Cycling or Ride Albania.
In Tirana, you can rent mountain bikes here, at a cost of about 15 euro per day.
