Grensetillatelser til Peaks of the Balkans utstedes av politimyndighetene i de tre landene Albania, Kosovo og Montenegro. Montenegro utsteder et stemplet dokument, Kosovo sender en e-post, mens Albania ikke utsteder et skriftlig dokument.
Disse grensetillatelsene tilbys også av ulike selskaper, blant annet informasjonsnettstedet "Peaks of the Balkans".
Etter at du har søkt, sender vi deg en skannet tillatelse fra det montenegrinske grensepolitiet og en e-postbekreftelse fra politiet i Kosovo.
Du kan søke ved å fylle ut skjemaet nedenfor og legge ved en kopi av passet ditt. Når vi har klargjort dokumentene dine, informerer vi deg om betalingsdetaljene og sender deg tillatelsene via e-post.
Ja, du må gi oss alle detaljer, inkludert datoen du krysser grensen og stedet for grenseovergangen. Grensetillatelsen "Peaks of the Balkans" er bare gyldig den dagen du søker om den.
Hvis du krysser grensen uten tillatelse, bryter du loven i to land. Det du forlater, og det du reiser inn i. Derfor blir du ikke arrestert, men du blir holdt tilbake av politiet til du har betalt en bot på rundt 300 euro.
Det er ikke så mange kontroller, men av og til er det politibetjenter på enkelte steder langs veien som ber deg om å vise frem dokumentene dine.
EXCELLENT Based on 275 reviews emcg252024-01-07Verified Incredible Peaks of the Balkans Trek An incredible place and experience- Donika and Alb led my group in the Peaks of the Balkans loop, and I could not be more grateful that I got to trek in a beautiful region with two guides whose love for the nature and their culture made the trip even more special. Dardan L2023-12-14Verified Amazing experience hiking peaks of balkans with friends coming from New York, London, Paris, Lebanon, Cyprus and Romania Booked a 5 day hike + via ferata with Balkan Natural Adventure for a group of 10 in July. The entire journey from organizing and thinking through it with Nol and Anila, to airport pick up, and to hikes, to transfers between hikes and all the way to customized drop off wherever each of us wanted was amazing. We were a diverse group of friends with people coming from New York, London, Paris, Lebanon, Cyprus, and Romania. Yet, the team was on top of everything, quick to respond, and extremely accommodating. Our tour guide, Vale, was also super great. She was super friendly and very accommodating to a lot of changes throughout the trip. The peaks of the balkans is of course breathtaking. The photos speak for itself. And changing countries all on foot is such a unique experience. Highly recommend Peaks of the Balkans and of course there is no tour agency like Balkan Natural Adventure. lynnmbk2023-12-14Verified Spectacular hike, guide, views, and food The hike was amazing, spectacular views, food in the B&Bs, and genuine people around. The guide, Vale, was fantastic. It took us some time to get used to the challenging level but the landscape was worthwhile. Didn’t expect to see Swiss-like views (and better as much more diverse) in the Balkans. Kirsten K2023-10-21Verified Peaks of the Balkans - Open Group Tour I recently joined the open group organised by the Kosovar tour operator ”Balkan Natural Adventure“ to hike the most beautiful sections of the Peaks of the Balkans Trek. I choose BNA for this tour as their ticked off my most important considerations: 1. Only 9 days of hiking - So far I had only hiked 4 days in a row. The original Trek is hiked within 12 days , but that felt too long for me and the available vacation days I wanted to take. 2. Route adaption - the PoB was established already more than 10 years ago. Parts of the route, especially in rural areas of Kosovo, have been under development since and are not the natural trails anymore they used to be. The local guides working with BNA therefore adapted the route to offer the hikers the nature experience they are looking for. 3. Price - Even though the first two points where the most important to me, I have to list this point as well, as BNA where partly only half as expensive as other tour operators. The hike itself was wonderful; The mountain landscape magnificent. The group was international and mixed amongst all ages. We were in total 11 hikers and we were accompanied by two mountain guides. Our head guide Mentor is a very experienced guide who knows these mountains by heart and who is part of the team maintaining the routes. He speaks excellent English (as well as Italian) and was able to answer all our questions regarding Landscape or History of this beautiful and historically interesting part of Europe. Being a solo hiker in familiar mountains, I was a bit worried prior to the hike, whether I like being part of such a big group. But the people in my group as well as the guides were awesome and I had a fantastic time. After all, we all had one shared love - the love for the mountains. Thank you BNA. Ilka B2023-10-06Verified Peaks of the Balkans - unvergesslich und horizonterweiternd Zusammen mit einer Freundin habe ich im September die geführte 9/10-Tage Tour Peaks of the Balkan gemacht. Die Buchung hat super unkompliziert geklappt, und Anila hat im Vorfeld alle Fragen kompetent und schnell beantwortet. Wir waren in einer Gruppe mit insgesamt acht Personen von 25 bis 60 Jahren aus Neuseeland, Australien und Deutschland sowie einem Guide aus dem Kosovo unterwegs und haben uns alle bestens verstanden. Unser sehr netter und lustiger Guide Alb hat viel Interessantes über Land, Leute und die Gastgeber erzählt und alle Bedürfnisse und unvorhergesehenen Ereignisse souverän gemanaged. Auch die anderen Guides von BNA, die mit anderen Gruppen unterwegs waren und die wir auf dem Weg getroffen haben, waren sehr freundlich. Als ein paar von uns ein bisschen krank waren, hat uns z. B. Albi zusätzlich begleitet. Wir fühlten uns bei BNA rundum gut aufgehoben und können die Buchung über BNA nur empfehlen. Wie Wanderung war einfach traumhaft. Die Wege wurden von Tag zu Tag noch schöner und einsamer. Die Unterkünfte waren zum Teil recht einfach, aber alle total in Ordnung, und mit sehr herzlichen Gastgebern und sehr gutem lokalem Essen. Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und nur Sonne. Ab und zu konnten wir uns in eiskalten Bergseen abkühlen. Die Wanderungen fand ich durchaus anstrengend (das tägliche Abendbriefing lautete in etwa "tomorrow: 1000 meters up and 1000 meters down..."😉), aber auch mit mittelmäßiger Kondition gut machbar. Die Route weicht an einigen Stellen vom Originalweg ab, z. B. am Tag 9 Grebaje/Taljanka - für mich auf jeden Fall ein absolutes Highlight der Tour. Alles in allem war die Tour ein unvergessliches und horizonterweiterndes Erlebnis! paul g2023-09-28Verified Peaks of the Balkans Trail - self guided, We booked our self guided Peaks of the Balkans holiday via BNA. To be clear this is not the full trail but selected pieces of it with some transfers so there are plusses and minuses when considered against the full trail. We couldn't fault the organisation of accommodation and transfers through the trip, everyone was expecting us and some even asked for our reference number. Our contact was super responsive to email questions and asked for information well in advance of it being needed so there were no last minute hiccups. She also gave good advice on getting back to Tirana at the end of the trip so we would not be in a rush for our plane home. There was a nervous moment at the end of the last day when a number of different people offered their 'taxi' to us but eventually someone showed us our name on their phone so we hopped in with him! As the title suggests, there are some peaks on this hike so don't go expecting lots of flat days. The trails are well marked and the GPX files provided when overlaid on our mapping app were very accurate. We lost count of the number of times we criss-crossed borders between Albania-Kosovo-Montenegro but BNA had provided us with all the necessary paperwork in case we were asked for it. (We did hear that a walker had been charged €10 by some men who were allegedly a border patrol to check their passports but have nothing to confirm if this was actually what happened). Weather was good but you are above 2000m on occasions so it can change quickly so pack a waterproof and windproof. Apparently the streams are drinkable but there are quite a lot of animals around so maybe filter it first. Food at guesthouses was good but not spectacular and build your own packed lunch was generally excellent local cheeses and tomatoes with bread - not many shops around so take whatever snacks you want with you for that post lunch energy boost! Overall a great trip and thoroughly recommended. Scenery is amazing and, yes, you will see the odd bunker or two :-) Sarah P2023-09-25Verified What an Adventure! I can't say enough about Balkan Natural Adventure and their guides! I just came back from the Peaks of the Balkans, Ten Days, Three Countries Tour. It was an incredible, intense trip with so many incredible views! A big call out to Balkan Natural Adventure for organizing such an incredible tour as well as our wonderful guides Mentor and Albi for making everything go smoothly. I was blown away by the hikes and views and would recommend this route to anyone seeking an adventure! India2023-09-19Verified All round excellence! The Peaks of the Balkans exceeded all expectations. In part for the scenery, and in part due to our phenomenal guide Vali and the wonderful group we had. I could not recommend highly enough. William L2023-09-17Verified Peaks of the Balkans Had an incredible 10 days' hiking the Peaks of the Balkans, great walking, wonderful people and incredible views - memories to last a lifetime! Our guides Gëzim, Albi and Buron looked after us all the way and expertly navigated all the bumps in the road, literally and metaphorically! They were friendly, approachable, and really to good to chat with! Food and board were good - some more basic than others, but comfortable and tasty. BNA were communicative, responsive, accommodating and helpful; what more could you ask for? The small group sizes were perfect - we left having made friends with our fellow hikers! Could not recommend this hike, or BNA more! Ann R2023-09-15Verified Brilliant felt very confident in BNA through out trip. As elderly lone female traveller I felt very well cared for doing Peak of the Balkans as a self guided walker. They were very efficient & professional from booking right thru to completion of my trip. Eli who I dealt with in the office tailored the trip to my exact requirements. All transfers including luggage transfers completed seamlessly & to time. Only one hiccup luggage rather wet on one occasion due to heavy rain. From my experience I would highly recommend this company. I
