    Beautiful trekking, quiet and totally out of civilization;) amazing and very diverse landscapes! For me last 30min before the top was quite challenging because of the lower oxygen level..and it took some effort, but then the success tastes even better! ;)

    Beautiful hike. From Stezimir follow the well marked red trail. Ascent 3,5h (basically no stops) and descent about 3h, 0,5h at the summit and it's a 7h hike in total (cca 6kg load).

    Very nice climb, easy and not too steep. From Northern Macedonian side you can drive a car almost up to Strezimir, just don't be afraid of the slightly rocky terrain. It takes quite some time to get all the way to the top and you can't see the peak most of the way, it only shows towards the very end of the trek.

    Amazing mountain to climb, with beautiful views along the way. The hike from the Macedonian side begins in the Strezimir police post, which is accessible by roughly 12-14km of unpaved/dirt road from either the Mavrovo region or alternatively the Gora region in Kosovo. This unpaved road is easily passable with regular cars and sedans, just make sure to go slowly.

    An awesome experience! Mount Korab is the highest peak of Albania and North Macedonia and you can reach it from both countries. The trail from Albania (Radomire village) is not that difficult and it takes 8-10 hours (to the top and back) depending on the group.

    Beautiful hike!! Stunning views pretty much the whole way. When we went mid-October it was very sunny and quite windy. There were only 3 others from the Macedonian side on the trail and 2 from the Albanian side. I think it took 4 ish hours up and 3 hours down. We don't walk very fast. I'm giving it 5 stars but maybe it should be 4 considering the road to get to the trailhead. We took a poor little fiat Punto rental on the 14km unpaved road. It made it but only just. And it couldn't get up the last 80m. We had to park at the beefarm. The road isn't so bad until the left turn marked "korab". After that it really is a 4wd road. So you could park near that turning and hike up 2km. The drive on the road was harder than the hike. I didn't know it was possible to hold my breath for over an hour.

    The bigest mountain of Albanians with height 2764 m high a.s.l. With its white peak looks tremendously beautiful.

    Beautifull mountain, easy for walking, a lot of springs and waterfalls on the roads.
