Terme di Peshkëpi

Peshkepi is a thermal spring site near the remote mountain town of Leskovik in the Permet district of southeastern Albania, close to the Greek border in the Nemercke range, where bicarbonate-rich spring waters emerge from the ancient limestone and ophiolite formations of the southern Albanian Alps in one of the most isolated and least-visited corners of the country. The spring sits within proximity of the Vjosa river — Europe's last great wild river, a 270-kilometre waterway without a single dam or embankment from its Albanian Alpine source to the Adriatic — declared a National Park in 2023 as the first wild river park on the continent. The extreme remoteness of the Leskovik region, the Albanian mountain culture of the Tosks with their traditions of hospitality, and the proximity of the Butrint UNESCO archaeological site on the Ionian coast make the Peshkepi springs a destination for those seeking genuinely off-grid thermal experiences in the wildest corner of the Balkans.
