The canyon is located about 4 km north of the historic town of Kruja (Krujë), right next to the national road leading towards the Qafë Shtamë pass. It lies in a picturesque setting between Mount Kruja and Mount Brreti. The route in these areas is famous for its beautiful, but also demanding, cycling climbs and descents.

The area is characterized by typical Mediterranean vegetation, where evergreen scrub, poppies, lavenders, wild olives, heathers and other species predominate.
The Droja River forms numerous waterfalls, cascades and natural pools here.

Deep within the canyon lies an underground cave system approximately 3 km long, which has not yet been fully explored. The canyon also hides an old stone bridge carved into the rock, which is one of the most interesting points for exploring this place. Additionally, traces of old steps or paths are visible on the cliff walls.
