Valbona
The Valbona River Valley lies
in the eastern part of the Alba-
nian Alps. A national park of
8,000 hectares, it is one of the
most beautiful natural areas
in Albania. The park lies about
22 km from the alpine city of
Bajram Curri. Before enter-
ing the valley you will find the
spring (vrellen) of Shoshan. It
is located only 3 km away from
Bajram Curri. This spring rush-
es through limestone fissures
on its way to the Valbona River
creating an attractive canyon
2-3 m wide and 50 m deep.
After entering the valley, you
will pass several picturesque
villages.
