Cool castle with cafe inside. There is limited parking and it gets very busy so come early. Before 9 is ideal. 400 entry free from fantastic attendants. Dog friendly

A nice castle, easily accessible with free parking close to the entrance. A ticket of 400Lek (adults) is logical but there is an extra fee (400Lek) to visit a museum within. It doesn’t look right. A kiosk to find ice creams, soft drinks and sth to eat but the prices quite above the average while the toilets disgusting. Avoid them. Amazing 360 view. If you visit the city its worth visiting it.

Amazing view. Wonderful story. The road there is a bit tiring but beautiful and cobbled. The people are fantastic. At the entrance to the neighborhood there is a shop where you can stop for the toilet. Its owner took us by car to the castle. The ticket costs $4 / person. Young people with a student card pay only $1.2 (although sometimes they don't pay at all 😂). The view of the castle is wonderful during sunset, there is also a coffee bar inside.

It’s a nice place to visit, as you will have a view of the whole area and lakes, entrance is 3 euro, which isn’t much. Unfortunately there isn’t much to see from the castle as only the surrounding walls are remaining. Total Time spent is around 45 minutes maximum.

First few facts: Castle is not “built bu Ottomans”. Builders of castle are Serbian rulers brothers Mrnjavcevic, long time before Turks came to Balkans. There is nothing to see except nice view over Skadar city

(Translated by Google) Rozafa Castle is a very beautiful and significant cultural asset with a beautiful legend. Above you can see the Drin River and the Black Drin River and you have a magnificent view over the whole surrounding area. The ticket price is very low 200 lek (about € 1.60) that you can't complain about. At the top there is also a beautiful museum with all the historical finds of this place. The negative reviews of this magnificent asset are made by the Slavs who have had, have and will have a great hatred and envy towards the Albanians. Other than that, I recommend this place to everyone. (Original) Il castello di Rozafa è un bene culturale molto bello e significativo con una bellissima leggenda. Sopra si possono vedere il fiume Drin e il fiume Drin Nero e si ha una magnifica vista su tutto il territorio circostante. Il prezzo del biglietto è molto basso 200 lek (circa 1,60€) di cui non ci si puó lamentare. In cima c'è anche un bellissimo museo con tutti i reperti storici di questo luogo. Le recensioni negative di questo magnifico bene sono fatte dagli slavi che hanno avuto, hanno e avranno un grande odio e invidia nei confronti degli albanesi. A parte tutto consiglio questo luogo a tutti.

Impressive castle with stunning views over the Shkoder city, lake and rivers. It has large perimeter, not so many surviving buildings inside (small museum and snack bar). If you are lucky you can see a sheep herder with his sheep. Definitely a must if you are in this part of Albania

An awesome castle which allows access nearly all areas. Great to climb the walls and get as close as I'd dare. You're in control of your own health and safety! Very hot at height of summer. Parking is not good. Head up to the top if you dare. Turning & reversing on narrow cobbles or rocks may be needed. I'd recommend parking before you go over the little bridge, then walk up. Well worth a visit though. The views are absolutely stunning!

After visiting every fort we could over the past 14 years... this is by far my favorite. For 1 there is still a lot to see here that has not fallen down and is in great shape. Also they allow you to basically go anywhere within reason, unlike most forts that have a designated trails, or this door is locked or that room is out of bounds. There is a TON to see here and you could easily spend a couple hours walking around. There are also underground areas you can your through so be sure to go slow and check out all the hidden spots.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful views, the fortress is quite demolished, but its magnitude is well appreciated and several of its rooms and levels are easily distinguished, they accept euros for entry and charge paying € 3.50 per person, it is really worth climbing and Enter, the views are incredible and the internet photos do not do justice to how beautiful it is. In February there are no tourists or cars with which you can go up to the same office where tickets are taken and park there (Original) Preciosas vistas, la fortaleza esta bastante derruida, pero se aprecia bien su magnitud y se distinguen con facilidad varias de sus estancias y niveles, aceptan euros para la entrada y cobran pagando con ellos 3,50€ por persona, realmente merece la pena subir y entrar, las vistas son increíbles y las fotos de internet no le hacen justicia a lo bonito que esta. En febrero no hay turistas ni coches con lo cual puedes subir en el hasta la misma oficina donde se sacan las entradas y aparcar alli

It was nice walk and good rest in the castle. The view toward the whole city and to the countryside were great. It is worth to visit here. We walked from the city to the castle but on our way, we took the local bus, it costs few cents. I do not recommend to walk round trip, it is quite long walk. If I was alone, it must be tough but with companies, we had good walk. This is a must if you are in Shkoder.

(Translated by Google) The castle of Shkodra named after Rozafa is built on a rocky hill at the entrance of the city of Shkodra. The height where the castle was built is 130 meters above sea level, surrounded by the river Buna e Drin with an area of ​​almost 9 hectares. The castle is the symbol of the city of Shkodra. (Original) Kalaja e Shkodrës që mban emrin Rozafa është i ngritur mbi një kodër shkëmbore në hyrje të qytetit të Shkodres. Lartesia ku eshte ndertuar kalaja eshte 130 metra mbi nivelin e detit, e rrethuar nga lumi Buna e Drin me një sipërfaqe prej gati 9 hektarësh. Kalaja eshte simboli I qytetit te Shkodres.

Really good to hire a bike to go there, as after you can cycle around the lake or river bank. Everything in Albania is very cheap btw.

There was a very beautiful view there. It's worth going to simply breathe in the delicious air. I went on Saturday but there weren't many people. It is faster to drive to the ticket office. There are few parking space. The ticket was 400 lek per person. It's a difficult road to walk, so it's best to wear it in an easy-to-move style. The male staff at the entrance will welcome you in a friendly manner.

This castle is a beautiful monument where you can appreciate unique panorama views from the city, the lake and the river. There are barely restricted areas so you feel free to discover the castle by yourself. It would help if there were more signs describing the history tho. If you come during the day don't forget to bring water, comfortable shoes and maybe some snacks (always take your trash with you) and cash to pay the entrance. Highly recommended to come here and spend some time

One of the many castles we visited in Albania. This one was large but it was not a living city. There was a restaurant on site, a museum and the ruins. In scale it was large and has gone though several reiterations through the many centuries of its existence. The views from the top are spectacular. This was a wonderful excursion for the afternoon.

Good spot for the morning trip in Shkoder. Nice views to the city and mountains. A little bit of history. Ticket was just 4 euro. Don't take the ride to the upper parking. Better leave the car down and climb. The road is very crowded, windy and narrow.

Wunderschön und gigantisch! Man kann mit dem Auto bis nach oben fahren, wenn noch Platz frei ist. Ansonsten fährt auch ein Bus. Kostet Eintritt, aber ist einen Preis wert. Empfang von 2 wunderbaren Hunden - lasst denen etwas Futter, Wasser und Liebe da ♡ Man kann hier locker 2-3 Stunden verbringen. Wunderschöne Aussicht, sehr gut geeignet für Fotos !

Wir sind gleich morgens zur Öffnung dort gewesen. Da es keine Schattenplätze gibt, wären wir ungern später dagewesen. Die Burg ist sehr groß und bietet einen großen Rundumblick über die gesammte Umgebung und ist allein deswegen sehenswert. Der Eintritt war gering und völlig in Ordnung. Als wir gingen, circa um 10 Uhr, füllte sich aber sowohl der Parkplatz als auch die umliegenden Straßen mit Touristen, Autos und Bussen. Vorsichtig sollte man aufjedenfall sein, wenn man unsicher beim Laufen ist. Die Steine des gesamten Weges sind wirklich sehr rutschig und bieten nur wenig Halt.

Castle of Rozafa is one of the most well known castles in Albania. The folklore tales of the mother that sacrificed her body to make the castle walls stand is astonishing. The castle area is very big and the ruins give you an amazing view from each angle. It's a must see. The climb is a bit hard but so so worth it. The fact that these castles are up on mountains and hills is so beautiful. Must see!

Nice view of the city. However it is hard to make out what the place used to the or the importance it had over the centuries, as there is barely any information on its past! You see a lot of ruins but no explanation of what it used to be. Still probably a must see place in an otherwise not-so-interesting Shkodër.

Ancient castle the history behind is a ancestor history of humankind. Rozafa legend makes the castle a bit spicy ?. The museum inside have a lot of utensils and the man who manages the museum you can ask him for everything he’s really kind.

The ruins of a very large venetian fortress. The fortress is build in a strategic location resulting in fantastic views of the city and river. There are two rings of walls, in the centre a few intact buildings remain housing a small bar. You can reach the location by car and park right in front of the entrance. Only a small entrance fee is requested. I would highly recommend visiting when in the area.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful location, unmissable panorama, imposing walls and very low visit cost. (Original) Bella posizione, panorama imperdibile, mura imponenti e costo visita molto basso.

(Translated by Google) Extremely picturesque landscapes around. And the scale of the fortress is very impressive. (Original) Надзвичайно мальовничі краєвиди навколо. І масштаб фортеці дуже вражає.

İt's a very nice place that was made by Ottoman Empire...

This place is an awesome, well preserved castle from the Ottoman war times. Access was fairly easy (Not a hard climb). There is an excellent museum with a great display of Scimitars and ancient Kopis type weapons along with a very well made diorama. There is a small gift shop with historical info and tourist trinkets. The staff there are really great guys, very knowledgeable and conversant (In English) on the history and significance of the place. We missed the cafe. The best part was our young kids were very interested in the place and learned some things. Overall a great place!

(Translated by Google) An amazing experience in Shkodra on Bojana. Stunning breathtaking views from the fortress. (Original) Невјероватно искуство на Скадру на Бојани. Задивљујући поглед са тврђаве који оставља без даха.

(Translated by Google) It's very primitive here (no processing and renovation), The view looks out over the mountains, the three rivers of Buna, Delin, and Kiri, and the town of Shkodër, Each position has a different view, Very amazingly beautiful. Be careful with children There are no fences and security measures throughout the castle. You can fall or be injured at will The floor slips easily if you wear the wrong shoes, and it is not easy to walk. Although there are some things to note, But still highly recommended, In the off-season, few people, Beautiful pictures can be taken throughout the castle, There is also a little obscure. It is very narrow and the passageway inside is very short. Be careful when going down, and turn on the flashlight yourself, otherwise it will be too dark to see. I personally think it is worth visiting again, next time I plan to bring some clothes to change and take beautiful photos. (Original) 這裡非常原始（沒什麼加工，整修）， 看出去的風景一望山脈，布納、德林、基里三條河流，還有Shkodër 城鎮， 每個方位都有不同的景色， 非常驚人的美麗。 有帶小孩要小心， 城堡各處沒有圍欄及安全措施， 隨便就可以掉下去或受傷（習慣台灣安全的環境，會覺得有點恐怖）， 地板如果穿錯鞋來會容易滑，也不是很好走。 儘管有些需要注意的地方， 但是還是非常推薦， 淡季的時候，沒什麼人， 城堡各處都可以拍出很漂亮的照片， 還有一個有點不明顯，往地下的迴旋梯， 很狹小，裡面通道也很矮，走下去要很小心，要自己開手電筒，不然會太暗看不到。 個人認為是值得再來的地方，下次準備帶一些衣服來換，拍美美的照。

We were on fort in January and scenary was breathtaking! There are so much to see, museum is rich of artefacts and views are beautiful. Highly recommended!

Awesome place, but in summer you need to go prepared with light clothes, a lot of water, sunscreen ans good shoes! It's really high, really beautiful, and worth each step you take! Don't forget your camera :)

(Translated by Google) good place with an observation deck of the city) (Original) хорошее место с обзорной площадкой города)

Beautiful castle - for me better than Berat because it is just a castle sitting on a high mountain. You don't have to fight yourself through weird alleys, restaurants, residents or other stuff.. Entry is fair too

(Translated by Google) The legendary castle was built in the Middle Ages on a high hill on the shores of Lake Shkodra, on the edge of the town of Shkodra. The castle was named after Rozafa, a young woman built into the walls. A legend similar to the story of Kelemen Kelemen is connected to the construction of the castle. The castle was built by 3 brothers. What they had built up one day fell to the next morning. So their hard work didn’t have much of an appearance. The brothers eventually figured out that one of their wives ’bodies would be built into the castle so that the woman’s bones would keep it. The next day, the youngest boy's wife, Rozafa, first took lunch to her lord. Rozafa had a breastfeeding little child, so she asked her brothers to wall it up so she could continue to take care of her baby. His wish was to see his little boy with his eyes, hold him with his hands, feed him with his chest and rock his cradle with his right foot. (Original) Shkodrai-tó partján, elterülő Shkodra város határában található magas dombra építették a közép korban a legendás várat. A vár nevét egy a falakba beépített fiatal asszonyról, Rozafáról kapta. A vár építéséhez Kőműves Kelemen történetéhez hasonló legenda kötődik. A várat 3 testvér építette . Amit egyik nap felépítettek, a másik napra reggelre ledőlt. Így kemény munkájuknak nem igen volt látszatja. A testvérek végül azt találták ki, hogy egyikük feleségének testét beépítik a várba, hogy az asszony csontjai megtartsák azt. Másnap a legfiatalabb fiú asszonya, Rozafa vitte először az ebédet urának. Rozafának szoptatós kis gyermeke volt, így azt kérte, a testvéretektől, hogy úgy falazzák be, hogy gyermekéről továbbra is gondoskodni tudjon . Kívánsága az volt, hogy kisfiát a szemével látni, a kezével tartani, a mellével táplálni szeretné jobb lábával pedig a bölcsőt ringatni.Ez volt az egyetlen olyan Albán terület, ahová az első világháborúban 1916 januártól az Osztrák-Magyar hadsereg befészkelte magát két évre .

Amazing place to visit, especially if u love antique and history. The view of Shkodra city from castle is amazing.

(Translated by Google) Very atmospheric place. Great views of the city and surroundings. It is necessary to wear sports clothes because the road is paved with stones to the castle, and inside the trail and to look at the views, sometimes it is necessary to get out along the woods that are not very even. Also, if you go there in the fall, it is better to take a warm jacket, the wind is colder than in the city below. Entrance in October cost 400 lek per person if you don't eat in a group with a guided tour, but by car. If an excursion then 200 leks per person. The museum did not work as well as the cafe. (Original) Очень атмосферное место. Шикарный вид на город и окресности . Надо одевать спорт обудь так как дорога уложена камушками к замку ,а внутри тропы и чтоб посмотреть на виды иногда надо выбиратся по лесинкам не сильно ровным . Так же если осенью туда поехать лучше брать теплую кофту ,ветер холоднее чем в городе внизу. Вход в октябре обошолся 400 лек с человека если едите не группой с экскурсией,а машиной . Если экскурсией тогда 200 лек с человека. Музей так же не работал как и кафе .

Definitely worth going. I walked from the centre of town, took about 45-50 mins. Amazing view from the top esp if you go around sunset. Interesting history facts on written on boards around the castle.

Beautiful castle maintained. Can see full city fees is 400 lek per head

Nice castle ruins!! Great panoramas from the city

Place is a bit hard to go with a bike because of the incline. You can still do it anyway you want. On the other hand, the castle shows marvelous views of the city from all angles! Totally recommended to have the best pictures of your visit 😉

Since we stayed at the Camping Legjenda just 30 minutes walking distance from the castle we took a nice walk up the hill to the Rozafa Castle. We passed nice houses with lush gardens full of different kinds of fruits. There were also a couple of souvenir shops on our way where we could buy snacks, drinks and souvenirs. Amazing views in all directions from the castle and also an interesting history to read about. It's a must to go there if you are in Skhodër!

Amazing castle ruins! Beautiful 360 degrees view of the entire city!

So glad we stopped in here! A fascinating and surprisingly well preserved ancient Fort. The original roads, walls and the view over the river are well worth the visit. Hint: you can drive all the way up but parking is limited and the road is effectively one way. Be prepared to reverse back down! (We got lucky). There is a cafe and bar tucked away right at the top too.

Only ruins but a beautiful view. The ticket costs 400 lek for adults. Those aged 0-12 enter for free. There's a museum inside ( you have to pay another ticket!). There's also a bar. If you need the toilet into the bar you have to pay another ticket.. you can eat and buy drinks (no prices exposed) but if you ask to use the toilet you have to pay again.... Parking is very small but it's in front of the entrance and it's free.

This castle lies on top of a small mountain and grants spectacular views. Entry fee is reasonable and it's very easy to reach. I just missed a guide who could tell more about the history, or some pictures of how it used to be. Now it's just some impressive old rocks you wander about while having nice views

Really large castle perched on a large hill overlooking Shkodër! They close at 21:00hrs but they let me in at 20:15 just after sunset. There are about 5 or so signs describing each courtyard and some of the buildings, but essentially, it's a "choose your own adventure" castle. Lots of people climbing around, some walls are quite small so people were perched on them. There is a cafe there and a museum for an extra fee but it was closed when I got there. Some parking down the bottom and then about a ten minute steep walk up slippery cobblestones to the castle entrance after the ticket booth.

Amazing views over Shkodër. Very scenic with great photo opportunities. The castle remains are very interesting & signs explain the history & changes over the years from BC to the Ottomans up the 19th century.

Majestic and gorgeous Rozafa castle. Lots of history and lots of legends are about the castle 🏰. We went there on Monday, early evening and were able to buy the tickets quick. Around $4 per adult, kids free. It’s a hike going up the castle so prepare to take few breaks. Going up with a car it’s a challenge as well because can get some traffic and being uphill it’s not an easy route. We were able to enjoy beautiful views of the Buna river, Shkodra and also part of Montenegro. The castle it’s well kept but you have to be extra careful from the shiny slippery rocks. For our bad luck it was very windy, started to drizzle a little and lots of lightning, so we wrapped everything quick to avoid any lightning since we were so high up. Definitely a recommendation to visit the castle if you are visiting Shkodra.

Good place. Pretty historic castle on top of a hill. You can drive up by car but have the feeling you wont find parking space as therr is only few spots. By walking it is pretty hard and steep hike. On the other hand the views from top are amazing. Entry fee can be payed by card. The castle is pretty big. On top there is also small store selling water and similar. Recomend.

Very nice castle, wonderful to visit on a sunny day. It has a great view of the whole city. You should take your camera with you. There is also a cafe at the top, the staff is very friendly and drinks are quite affordable.

A beautiful experience. Ehat the Castle offered was its once Grandeur that stood out from the ruins. The fantastic view from its balconies, and for those who know its history, the Tears of Rozafa, which are still kept in the tunnels of the castle, was very impressive. The museum was very pleasant as you got to know some carefully preserved archaeological facts and findings, which few people know about. Truly a special experience.

Medieval castle.. A bit of hiking but totally worth it 😍😍

Arrange a guide if you want to know the history behind as information labels don't offer much. Plan to go early morning (opens at 9am) as it can get really hot there.

Calm city of Shkoder. Nice view of the city

The castle is in a decent state and has information in English at several points. The views are rather good, especially at sunset. Closing times might just be a suggestion, as we got in half an hour after official closing time. Oh.. and beware of the spiders.

There are very nice views from there. The castle as such is okay - nothing special. There’s 200lek entrance fee. If you go in the evening, take a couple of drinks with you as it gets a bit romantic towards the end of the day.

Bit of a pig to get to but I did cycle up. Cool views when you're there.

Should definitely visit!

(Translated by Google) If you are staying in Shkoder, it is worth visiting but not especially worth going! (Original) Если останавливаешься в Шкодер, посетить стоит но специально ехать не стоит!

Must visit if you are in Shkoder. The view is awesome

Just a miracle of History

(Translated by Google) You can see the sunrise in the morning and the sunset in the evening. However, I can't enter the fort outside of business hours in the morning, so if you go there, it's definitely recommended before the evening. (Original) 朝行くと日の出が、夕方行けば夕日が見れます。 ただ、朝は営業時間外で砦に入れないので、行くなら断然夕方前がおすすめ。

(Translated by Google) You need to get tired and sweat to climb the castle hill! The road to ROZAFA Castle winds picturesque up the hill and, for climbing effort, offers us beautiful views! After reaching the destination, it turns out that this is a powerful fortress, fortified by several defensive walls and spread over several levels. The castle grounds are entered through a solid, double gate made of massive stone blocks. Rozafa Castle, was built in the fourteenth century by the Venetians on the foundations of the castle, existing in ancient times. This historic castle - fortress, is located on the outskirts of the city of Shkoder, surrounded by two rivers and in close proximity to the lake. The views from the castle are a view of the Damned Mountains, a view of the backwaters of the Drin River and the Buna River, which is a natural border with Montenegro. ROZAFA is the name of the girl, the castle was named so to commemorate a young woman, but to learn this story you must go there! (Original) Aby wejść na wzgórze zamkowe, trzeba się mocno zmęczyć i spocić ! Droga na Zamek ROZAFA wije się malowniczo pod górę i za wysiłek wspinaczkowy, raczy nas pięknymi widokami !

Na teren zamku wchodzi się przez solidną, podwójną bramę z masywnych bloków kamiennych. Zamek Rozafa , został zbudowany w XIV w. przez Wenecjan na fundamentach zamku, istniejącego w czasach antycznych. Ten zabytkowy zamek - twierdza, położony jest na peryferiach miasta Szkodra , otoczony dwoma rzekami i w bliskim sąsiedztwie jeziora. Widoki roztaczające się z zamku to widok na Góry Przeklęte, widok na rozlewisko rzeki Drin i rzeki Buna, która jest naturalną granicą z Czarnogórą. ROZAFA to imię dziewczyny, zamek został tak nazwany aby upamiętnić pewną młodą kobietę, ale żeby poznać tę historię musicie tam pojechać !

A beautiful place, from above, there is a beautiful view of the sink of the Drim and Bojana rivers and Lake Skadar. There are no tourist facilities here. Even a good souvenir cannot be found.

Accessible with a car with free parking next to the entrance. Ticket costs 1 euro per person. Being on the hill it offers nice views of the city and surrounding rivers. The castle is a ruin, nothing special.

Very nice view and interesting monument. Clean too. Access by car is a bit difficult.

Its ok. Yeah, beautiful view of the city and nice. Pictures speak more than words. However, there is a 200lek entrance fee (for tourist). Technically for everyone but when I got there I paid and I was looking and no one else paid. I even took pictures of people going around to get in without paying. I can't give a good rating to a place that steals tourist.

A fort over 2500 years old was ruled by the Illyrian tribe of Labeates. Among the kings may be mentioned King Agron, Queen Teuta, King Gent. An archeological and historical site the most important in the city of Shkodra, the most famous city of northwestern Albania.

(Original) Leuk om even een kijkje te nemen als je in de omgeving bent, vooral vanwege het uitzicht. De kasteelruïnes zijn ook aardig om even over te lopen. Binnen een uurtje heb je alles wel gezien.

Amazing place, amazing views. Worth visiting and spending some time here. Unforgettable experience.

Nice castle with very good views! Government needs to make some other alternative roads so we don’t have to get stuck in the traffic jam on our way back. Google maps directions are not exact at the last 300m!

Such a beautiful view up there.. I love all the scenery..

An amazing castle with a lot of history and some really well-preserved structures. You can see the influence of multiple cultures and historical periods. Also the views are quite breathtaking, especially in the direction of Skadar Lake. There's a free parking place right before the entrance to the castle. Entry fee costs 400 lek per person, which is a great price for what you get. Just a little warning, there's a museum in the castle and you have to pay extra to get in. But it's worth it.

Amazing place to enjoy viewpoints from different angles on the city or the two rivers. Entrance is 400 leke per adult and there is a museum inside about the fortress for 200 leke. The condition of the castle is well preserved. About 45 mins walk from city center. Count 30mins for fortress view

The castle is quite big and well preserved. The view is just amazing, you can see the Shkodra lake and the whole city from above. The entrance fee is 400 Lekë and I’d say it’s worth it!

Very impressive castle. It's 400 Lek entrance fee. The views from the top are breathtaking.

I loved the view from the castle. It has so many panoramic views for photos that include the mountains, lake Shkodra, and the city of Shkoder. I recommend visiting it and exploring around for nice photography spots.

The castle view is beautiful. You can visit the Mosque just below. It has a simple lock on its door and the visit is free and there are no attendants. Only the imam comes during prayer hours.

Beautiful castle with excellent views. Steep uphill and once inside the rocks are quite shiny and slippy, so be careful. Absolutely stunning views. Friendly welcome by the cashier. Good value. Separate costs to get into the museum (200 lek) Water is expensive from the cafe: 250 lek for a large 1.5 litre bottle. Same bottle from supermarket in the morning was only 50 lek.

A beautiful castle. In comparison with other Albanian ones, it can use some more upkeep and stuff like explanation signs. However it is authentic. It has a small restorant inside and a parking, it is a paid attraction.

This immense ruin perched high atop a hill at the confluence of three rivers (Kiri; Drin; and Buna) provides breathtaking views of Lake Shkodër, the lowlands to the south of the city, and the city itself. Once you’ve made the trek up the polished cobblestone road leading to the entry point you pay a mere 400L per adult to enter. The slippery road (it would be very treacherous if wet) and the opportunity to scramble about the ruins dictate that you should wear solid shoes with good grip. We saw a couple of people in beach sandals, and others in rubber flip flops, and they were not having a good time walking up that road! The castle itself is huge! There are three “courtyards”, with the third dominating the highest point of the castle. You can get some incredible views at all points as you explore, but the views from the top are truly spectacular. A few things to keep in mind before you visit. First, although there are some interpretive panels (with English translations) detailed information about the castle isn’t really available on-site. There are no audio guides, and no interpretive tours (at least that we could discern). So if you’re keen to learn the history of the castle it’s best to do reading in advance. Second, most of the walls have no safety railings, and some of the drops are more than ten metres. Keep a close eye on toddlers and young children, and resist that urge to get the perfect Insta selfie! This applies also to several instances of cistern openings that have no grates, and drops of five or more metres should someone fall in. Third, there is a small coffee shop/resto in the third courtyard. They make passable coffee for a not bad price, and have a range of canned, cold drinks available as well (*we didn’t order any food). Finally, there is a small museum beside the coffee shop. It’s worth the 200L per person entry fee, especially if it’s not busy. When we visited the person taking admissions happily showed us some of his favourite exhibits, explaining in detail the stories behind them. There is some wonderful history here. Hopefully someday audio guides and interpretive tours will be available. In The meantime, this castle is still worth a visit.

Beautiful and enormous, but also totally empty castle with great view. Recommended to read about the castle before you arrive, because you will get very little information from info post inside.

Castle covers huge area and has a lot of visitors. Saying that and reading about the long long history it could definitely have more info displayed. 400 lek per person. Amazing 360degree view. Little kiosk with souvenirs and bistro food available on main courtyard. Be aware of slippery cobblestones.

Beautiful place with stunning views and good energy! You’ll get a 360 degrees view from the city and surroundings, definitely worthy going
