Mount Korab reaches a height of 2764 meters above sea level and is the highest peak on the border of Albania and Macedonia. The trail to the summit is moderately difficult and does not require climbing, but due to steep ascents and altitude, hikers should be well prepared.

In the summer, the trail to the Korab summit is milder and more pleasant. Temperatures range from 10 to 20 degrees Celsius. Although short-term rainfall may occur, most of the time the conditions are pleasant for hiking.

In winter, the conditions on the trail are much more difficult. The Korab peak experiences low temperatures, often below zero, and there may be a lot of snow. Without appropriate equipment and experience, winter hiking is not recommended.

The Korab trail is well marked and leads through a variety of terrain, starting from forests, then through meadows, and finally through rocky high mountain terrain. Climbing to the summit takes about 7-9 hours depending on the pace of the hike. Additional climbing equipment is not required, but it is worth remembering to wear appropriate footwear and clothing.
