Doberdol is located on the remote Subliva plateau, in northern Albania at an altitude of 1800 meters. Here, mountain ridges and peaks ranging from 2200 to 2500 meters surround our terrain, perfect for Catskiing. With five full days of Catskiing, spread over six days, an unforgettable experience awaits you. Discover not only the natural beauty of Albania, but also the rich culinary and cultural traditions of Kosovo and Albania.
Immerse yourself in a journey that not only offers adrenaline, but also profound discoveries and unforgettable moments in one of Europe's most spectacular yet rarely visited areas.
WHAT DOES THE TRIP LOOK LIKE?
This 8-day trip begins with a flight to Pristina (Kosovo). We will be picked up there and spend the night in a guesthouse in Peja. The next day starts with a relaxed breakfast in the town of Peja, after which we drive by 4×4 to Albania. It is a rugged drive through a gorge towards the snowline, where the snowcat awaits. The snowcat drives over a mountain pass and then descends to the plateau where the lodge is located. Afterwards, a safety briefing is given, and we might even do the first few runs. The following days are entirely dedicated to freeriding in the amazing area around the lodge.
All details and a day-to-day program can be found in the brochure.

Accommodation
The guesthouse, currently under construction, offers a perfect starting and ending point at an altitude of 1800 meters. Designed for exclusive use by a maximum of 12 guests, it guarantees a unique experience with only one group on site. In winter, we share Deberdol with active huts and accommodations, but in winter, we have the place to ourselves. The new guesthouse features four bedrooms, each with three beds, occupied by two or three guests. The kitchen and common area are located on the ground floor. There are also several single room options available right next to the guesthouse in cozy external cabins. These have separate shared sanitary facilities.
Discover an oasis of tranquility and exclusivity amidst pristine nature, perfect for adventurers who want to experience true mountain life.
