The HIDDEN GEM of Albania | Përmet | Benja Thermal Baths (Albania 2021)

Përmet, Albania 2021

The hidden gem of Albania

Përmet has everything except the sea!

Llixhat e Bënjës :
A large Ottoman bridge arks over a winding stretch of sparkling blue-green water. Built back in the Middle Ages, it has been letting people cross the sulfur rich river since the days of the Ottoman Empire.
Warm water rushes beneath it, providing a relaxing treat for those who visit.

Near the bridge, you’ll find the the Benja Thermal Baths, born from the geothermal waters near Përmet, Albania. The heated water flows down the river unless it gets diverted into one of the several human-made pools.

The area surrounding the bridge and the hot springs is absolutely stunning. Walking atop the stone overpass is a great way to soak in the views. The river cuts through the beautiful Langarica canyon, backdropped by distant mountains that stretch toward the sky.
Small waterfalls rush and ripple along some parts of the river. It’s a perfect spot to camp!

Just as much of a hidden gem is the amazing centre of Përmet itself.

It is the greenest and the cleanest town in Albania, also known as the “city of roses.” The small town of Permet is famous for its folk music and renowned clarinetist Laver Bariu, literature personalities, and incredibe organic cooking, especially sweets, the so called ‘gliko’, or preserves.
You will be served amazing wine (mostly homemade) and some interesting varieties of Raki too.

A great thing to do in Permet is to climb the big rock , it’s very near to the centre of the town, it’s called the rock of town looking over the town and Vjosa river. This is the point of observation of the town.

There is a famous Spa very near to Permet, in Bënja, you may take a taxi or even walk if you want. (We rented electric bikes from Keli Guesthouse) just 10 euro for the entire day.
Ask around for directions, the location is south of Permet. The hot springs are situated in a scenic setting with tons of mind blowing views.

INCREDIBLE SOUTHERN ALBANIA ROADTRIP! *PART 1* (Permet & Korca)

Renting a car in Albania is the best way to discover what this beautiful country has to offer! Distances are not long and you can literally be enjoying the beach one day, and go rafting in the mountains the next day.

Another reason why an Albanian roadtrip is a great idea is because there's not much to do in the little towns, so spending two nights at each is the perfect way to see a lot in little time and have all kinds of different experiences. Trust us, you will not be bored!

And don't forget that the bus system in Albania still has a long way to go, so better to have your own private transportation if your budget allows!

BEST City in ALBANIA | Gjirokaster, Blue Eye, Permet Thermal Baths

The Best city in Albania is Gjirokaster and it's also close to the Permet Thermal Baths and the Blue Eye.

We would have loved to spend more time in Gjirokastra and experience more of the incredible vibe this city offers. Unfortunately we were only there for a few hours, but would love to go back.

Albania is an incredible country and offers so much from a thriving capital city, to hidden beaches, ancient city's and mountains in the North.
We went on a day trip from Saranda to the magnificent Blye Eye. A natural underwater spring.

Next our very kind AirBnB host took us to the town of Permet to meet his family, who are locals. It was such a special experience being invited into their garden and they were incredibly generous. Loading up bags with fruit and vegetables from their garden, Albania truly has incredibly nice people.

Thereafter we stopped close by at the Baths of Benja, a natural hot spring with various pools and healing minerals. I also did a mud bath right there.

Our last stop was definitely the highlight, the ancient now turned student town Gjirokastra. A hike up the mountain will bring you to a castle town dating back far into the BC years. It is still so in tact and you have freedom to really explore the grounds and take it all in.

I felt like a kid in a natural theme park the entire day.

PËRMET, ALBANIA ???????? ~ The Most Beautiful Bus Ride in the World?

After leaving Korçë, we traveled by a very small minivan to Përmet, Albania. We took the minivan from the main bus station in Korçë at 11am.

Our goal was to reach Gjirokstër on the same day, but there is no direct bus from Korçë to Gjirokastër. You need to go to Përmet first, then get another bus from there to Gjirokastër, which is what we were hoping to do.

The journey from Korçë to Përmet took about five hours across a variety of terrain. We've been amazed by Albania's beauty on other bus rides, but this ride was incredible! The section between Leskovik and Përmet was especially stunning.

When we arrived in Përmet there were no more buses heading to Gjirokastër that day, so we needed to stay the night. In the end, we were happy we did!

Përmet is a beautiful small town on the Vjosë River. We walked around the city and explored for as long as we could until the sun went down.

We learned that the most popular activities to do in Përmet are going rafting on the Vjosë river and swimming in the Bënjë thermal baths about 12 Km outside of town.

Unfortunately, we weren't prepared to do either of those things, so we'll have to go back. Make sure if you're traveling to Përmet that you bring your bathing suit!

Thank you for watching! :) We hope you found this video fun and useful.

Day 2 in Albania : The Amazing Journey from the Blue Eye to Gjirokastër, via Permët's thermal baths!

#albania #gjirokaster #travel #albaniantrip

Follow us on our new adventures in #Greece and the #balkans on @Autourdumonde1 . Between history and gastronomy, this journey of several weeks will make you discover splendid places from the air. Please note that all images, even those taken by #drone, are shot in #4k .

Eleventh stop on our journey through Greece and the Balkans, we return for a second episode in Albania. This is in fact our first real day entirely devoted to the country, a 275-kilometer journey that will take us through the natural wonders of the country's southeast, including #blueeyes , #gjirokastër and #permet and its thermal baths.

0:28 Introduction
0:46 Lunch and departure from Ksamil
1:57 Short dive and discovery of the Blue Eye
4:58 Head for Gjirokastër via the mountains
6:29 Visit to the city-museum of Gjirokastër
11:06 Back on the road to Permët
12:50 Problems with GoogleMap
13:29 Relaxation at the Bënjë thermal baths
16:44 Evening in Vlora

Intro:
So we left Ksamil and headed for our first point of interest of the day, the Blue Eye. It will take us around 50 minutes to cover the 35 kilometers that separate us from the place.
One of the unforeseen activities of our trip was this exceptional stop, the site of the Blue Eye. You'll understand why a little later, but this is undoubtedly a unique site in southern Albania. Where a hydroelectric dam now stands, you'll find an exceptionally clear water source.

First stop: The Blue Eye
When they tell you that Mother Nature is a great artist, this is no exception. Although it's a very long walk to the waterhole, don't hesitate to cover the distance - it's well worth the detour. Like us, you might even bump into some of our fellow citizens along the way.
As you can see, this spring is as pure as its crystalline blue-green color.
Of course, like most of the tourists there, we couldn't resist taking a dip, even though the water is very cold.

Second activity: Gjirokastër
Located 215 km south of the capital Tirana, Gjirokastër lies on the slopes of Mali i Giëre, or the Great Mountain. The area has been inhabited since the 1st century BC, but the present-day town was built around the castle in the 12th century. The Byzantines called the place Argyropolis, meaning silver city.

There's an exceptional atmosphere in this town, where tourists weren't very numerous, despite the abundance of tourist shops. Be prepared, though, as everything slopes from start to finish. Nevertheless, the Ottoman style of the place stands in stark contrast to anything we'd seen here since the start of our trip.

Castle:
The highlight of the visit is the fortress that stands in the heart of the city. Now a museum of sorts, it's a unique place to take a stroll and enjoy the exceptional panoramic views over the town and the entire region.

Last stop: the Bënjë thermal baths near Permët
We had a long discussion before deciding whether to head even further east towards the small village of Permët, right in the heart of the Albanian mountains. In the end, it was one of the best decisions we made on the whole trip.

The place is very, very popular with the Albanian families who come here every day, and we were among the only foreigners there that day. In addition to the exceptional site with its old Ottoman bridge, it's an unsuspected place to relax, and even therapeutic since the waters are around 28 degrees Celsius.

Arrival in Vlora :
After 141 kilometers and 2 hours on the road, we ended the day in Vlora, where we'll be spending the night.
