Do

[edit]
  • 1 Postenan spring (near Leskovik). Halfway up the cliff, reached by a narrow path hacked in the rock-face, all wet and slippery, with a sheer precipice below, the last pieces very bad, but they drag invalids up it. Two cranky huts are stuck like swallows’ nests on the ledge.
    More a hiking trip than a hot spring tour.

  • 2 Burimet e Leskovikut (Sarandoporo). Several semi-warm hot springs (26.7°C) in a beautiful river valley right at the Greek border. Some hot springs are actually on the Greek side—if you enter the canyon they are on the left side, which you will feel through the warm waters.
    Before the main pool at the very end of the valley, which was constructed by man, there are a few minor hot springs where you might want to take a dip. Also, before there is an abandoned spa dwelling up a hill with two falling-apart pools.
    The gravel road leads very close to the springs, half way east you will find another abandoned spa village. The rest you have to wade partly waist deep through the river—probably not a good idea during heavy rains.
