The best time to visit Kala E Dodës is during the summer months, from June to September, for pleasant weather and full access to outdoor activities.
During this period, the weather is typically warm and sunny, making it ideal for exploring the mountainous terrain and enjoying activities like hiking and trekking. The roads and trails are generally clear of snow, ensuring easier travel and access to the more remote and scenic parts of the region.
Visitors interested in hiking and experiencing the natural beauty of the Albanian Alps will find these months perfect. The longer daylight hours also allow for more extensive exploration of the various peaks, valleys, and glacial lakes that define the area.
For those looking for a quieter experience, the shoulder months of May and October can also be appealing. While the weather might be a bit cooler and some facilities might have reduced hours, the landscape is still beautiful, and there are fewer visitors.
