Timeline
14:26
Stop at Marcus Coffee Shop for a locally roasted espresso or Turkish coffee. The staff are happy to chat about the beans, and it’s a quiet start before the climb.
15:26
Take bus 4, 5 or 9 to the top of Gërmia Park. Arrive with an hour to spare to find a grassy spot or a tree with a clear view toward the WSW.
16:26
Watch the sunset. On this date, the sun sets toward the WSW, casting golden light over the park and the city below.
17:11
Head back down to the city center. End the evening at Soma Book Station, an upscale spot with a curated bookshop and vinyls, open late for a nightcap.
Local tip
The park is a 7-minute walk from the center, but the bus is the easiest way up. Soma Book Station is open until midnight, so you have plenty of time to linger after the sun goes down.
