Shortcut to Saranda Coworking from the center of saranda

Looking for an easier way to get to our coworking space from the promenade rather than walking up that big hill by the main road (as suggested by GoogleMaps)?

Here’s just one of the many shortcuts up to road 5 from the center that will get you up be here in about 10-15 minutes on foot.

Much faster going down of course. :-)

Here’s how you get to Saranda Coworking if you’re walking up from the promenade. For the purposes of this direction our starting point will be Marini’s restaurant (amazing food and service btw :-)). See PHOTOS BELOW to make sure you’re on the right track. :-)

1. Walk up the stairs by Marini’s restaurant (Rruga Mustafa Matohiti).

2. Keep walking up til you get to Rruga Lefter Talo.

3. Turn left on Rruga Lefter Talo and keep walking until you see Rruga Qazim Pali.

4. Across from Rruga Qazim Pali you will see this Mish Bulmet sign for a butcher shop that also has lots of signs to Hostel Andrey and Hotel Gjika. Go up on that road following the signs to those hotels. You will also start seeing signs for Hotel Olympia - those are the ones you want to continue following.

5. Keep following the signs to hotel Olympia up a small narrow road with pretty flowers and olive trees amidst the neighborhood.

6. Keep following the signs to Hotel Olympia until you see the blue gate in the photo and the small narrow stairs on the left side.

7. Go up the small narrow stairs and you will get to the top of road 5 (Rruga Gjergij Araniti) right by Hotel Olympia. Yaay the hardest part is over!

8. Now turn right and then just keep going straight on road 5 for about 5 minutes towards Saranda Coworking and Marketing. You will pass the View Coffee Shop and the Paradiso Coffee shop. Once you get to Vive Mare Coffee Shop, our Saranda Coworking space is right behind it. :-)

Going down to the center from the coworking space? Simply reverse the order of the directions and enjoy the downhill walk with the views.
