An interesting article in the San Francisco Chronicle:
"Pulling down the statues of Albania's real-life Dr. Evil, Enver Hoxha, was easy. Deleting his name from the mountain above town wasn't.
The despotic crackpot who ruled this odd little country for four
decades had his first name burned into the mountainside above Berati
with acid, in letters 50 feet high. They're going to be there a long
time."

Tour Description: At 8:00 o’clock in the morning we start our tour in direction to Corovoda. The drive from Berat through the scenic Osumi valley takes a bit more than one hour, and just a little later we ride along the amazing Canyon of Osumi. During the trip you will discover the traces of the legend of “Gropa e nuses” and “Kemba e nuses”. Then we head back to Corovoda for a tasty lunch. For a convenient digestion we will make an easy, rather impressive walk to “Mali i Care” and visit the spectacular entrance of the Pirogosh-cave. We will be back to Berat during the afternoon.

Tour Description: After a short 40min drive through the scenic Osumi valley we will be in the little village Bogova, in Skrapar. We leave the vehicle behind and start our easy 2-hour round walk, to inhale the clean air of the countryside, and visit the fascinating cascades of Bogova. We encourage the hero swimmers among us to take a refreshing bath in the cold spring water. Back to the village of Bogova we will have a good appetite for lunch. Famous for its quality and taste is the Bogova lamb, which we shouldn’t miss to try out on this occasion. We’ll be back to Berat in the early afternoon.
