Clearing above the Lijewa Rijeka

Wild spot Katun Jokanovića, Albania Sławek

About this place

A clearing by the lake surrounded by mountains, at an altitude of 1312 meters. Access via a gravel road requires an off-road vehicle - the ground is hard and compacted, and there is enough space for several dozen cars. There is no drinking water and no mobile network coverage. The area attracts nature observers - within a five-kilometer radius, birds such as the alpine accentor, the rock pipit, and the Eurasian hoopoe are recorded, as well as alpine plants. The sky here is exceptionally dark, and the stars are visible to the naked eye. The surrounding areas are ancient rock settlements, remnants of marine sediments from tens of millions of years ago.
