The Benja Thermal Springs in Përmet continue to attract domestic and foreign tourists as autumn brings cooler temperatures to the Langarica Valley. Visitors come to enjoy the natural hot springs and the peaceful surroundings.

The springs rank among Përmet’s best-known natural attractions. Prime Minister Edi Rama shared footage of the site today, showing tourists enjoying the warm waters during the November weekend. The autumn season offers visitors a unique experience, combining warm thermal waters with crisp air and colourful landscapes.

Visitors can also explore the historic Kadiu Bridge, a cultural heritage monument, and Langarica Canyon, known for its impressive rock formations and natural scenery. The springs also attract visitors for their mineral content and traditional use for relaxation. They have helped establish Përmet as a destination for nature and wellness tourism.

Their popularity throughout the year highlights the area’s potential to attract tourists beyond the summer season. Meanwhile, a major rehabilitation project aims to upgrade the springs’ infrastructure, improve facilities and provide better conditions for visitors. The Albanian government is funding the project through the Albanian Development Fund. It aims to turn the site into a modern recreational destination while protecting its natural environment and distinctive character. However, construction work remains underway.
