    Description

    The final stage stays on the Albanian Riviera and brings together everything that defines this coastline. After Himarë, the road runs over short, steep rises towards Porto Palermo, with its castle, bay and turquoise water directly below the route. Qeparo, Borsh and long slopes above the sea follow. Olive groves, terraces, rock faces and small villages such as Lukovë and Shën Vasil take turns along the way. Near Sarandë, the coast becomes busier, more urban and opens wide towards the island of Corfu.
