Lengarica Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Here you have impressive views of the deeply cut gorge. From Benjë you can walk on the north shore, but the trail is sometimes difficult to see.

Kadi Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Next door are the hot sulfur springs. If you like the smell of rotten eggs, you can also bathe in it 😉

Vjosa Valley

Highlight • Gorge

The road that runs through the valley of the Viosa River, towards Permet, is truly spectacular. The turquoise waters of the river meander between huge mountains such as the Nemërçkë mountain range, a spectacular limestone massif.

Benja Stone Bridge and Hot Springs

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

We visited in May 2024. The main pool was nice to swim in but in our experience it wasn’t warm - more pleasantly cool (which was nice for a hot afternoon!)
