Shkodër → Theth →From Theth to Shkodër is about 73 km. Most of the drive is the SH21 mountain road: about 54 km from the village over the Thore pass, past Bogë and down through Shkrel to the plain. There it joins the SH1 near Koplik, and the last stretch runs south into the centre of Shkodër. The road has many bends; the time shown, about 2h 15m, is driving time without stops.
Theth lies inside the Alps of Albania National Park, declared in 2022 to join the former Theth and Valbonë valley parks. The first part of the drive takes you out of the valley and over the pass.
