Kolë Idromeno, Shkodër’s pedestrian street, is lined with restored houses, cafés and the Marubi museum. Rent a bicycle like the locals and ride out to the shore of Lake Shkodër, the largest lake in Southern Europe, shared with Montenegro, to the village of Shirokë for a fish lunch by the water. The Mes Bridge and Rozafa Castle are short rides away too. Shkodër is a cycling town, so riding is easy and the traffic used to bikes.
