When to visit?

The best time to visit Koman Lake and the surrounding region typically depends on personal preferences and what activities you plan to do:

Spring (April – May): This season offers mild temperatures, blooming wildflowers, and vibrant green landscapes. It’s an excellent time for hiking and outdoor activities before the summer crowds arrive.
Summer (June – August): Summer is the peak tourist season with warmer temperatures, clear skies, and longer daylight hours. It’s ideal for boat trips on Koman Lake, swimming in the refreshing waters, and exploring the surrounding mountains.
Early Autumn (September – October): This period combines pleasant weather with fewer tourists. The landscapes are still lush from summer rains, making it a great time for hiking and enjoying the scenery.
Late Autumn (November): Towards late November, temperatures start to drop, and some services may close for the winter season. However, if you enjoy quieter travel experiences and don’t mind cooler weather, it can still be a beautiful time to visit.
Winter (December – February): Winters in the Albanian Alps can be cold and snowy, especially at higher elevations. Many hiking trails and rural accommodations may be closed during this time. However, if you enjoy winter sports like skiing and snowshoeing, nearby destinations like Theth National Park offer opportunities.

For most visitors, the peak season of summer (June to August) provides the best weather for enjoying Koman Lake and its surroundings to the fullest. However, if you prefer quieter surroundings and milder temperatures, consider visiting in late spring or early autumn.
