Camping Legjenda

Alan Rogers Review of Camping Legjenda

Camping Legjenda in Shkodër, Albania, offers a unique and memorable experience for travellers exploring the country's north. Situated conveniently on Rruga Agron, just south of the city centre, the campsite provides a tranquil retreat with stunning views of Rozafa Castle, which sits on a nearby hilltop. The location is further enhanced by its proximity to the confluence of the Buna and Drin rivers and the vast expanse of Lake Shkodra, the largest lake in the Balkans. This family-run campsite is celebrated for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, catering to a diverse range of visitors, from backpackers and families to those traveling in caravans and motorhomes. The well-maintained grounds are thoughtfully laid out, with 60 touring pitches with electric hook up points available and are set amongst a variety of fruit trees and grape vines. 

The campsite is equipped with a comprehensive range of facilities and includes the central circular swimming pool, complete with a circular gazebo lounge, offering the prefect place to cool down during the warmer months. Younger visitors can enjoy the on-site playground, while a volleyball court provides opportunities for recreation. Modern conveniences are also well-catered for, with Wi-Fi access available across a significant portion of the site. The sanitary facilities are consistently clean and well-maintained. For those who enjoy cooking there is a designated BBQ area as well as a communal kitchen. A highlight of Camping Legjenda is its highly-regarded on-site restaurant which is set within a picturesque garden adorned with art installations that narrate the legend of Rozafa Castle, the restaurant serves a menu of traditional Albanian cuisine and Mediterranean dishes.

The campsite serves as an excellent base for exploring the surrounding region. The historic city of Shkodër, with its bustling bazaar and the Marubi National Museum of Photography, is just a short distance away. The campsite staff are known for their helpfulness and can arrange various excursions, including trips to the Albanian Alps, the stunning Lake Koman, and the Theth and Valbona valleys, renowned for their hiking trails.
