TIRANA, June 11 / ATA/ – The Albanian Power Corporation (KESH) with regards to its social and environmental commitments has generally been engaged in activities related to the rehabilitation of the road axis along the Koman Hydro Power Plant (HPP), thus offering a wonderful view.
The KESH investments aimed at the promotion of the area’s tourism.
The lake of Koman is of great relevance , not only for the production of energy but also for tourism.
The road axis provides a magical ferry ride on lake Koman, northern Albania for foreign and local tourists who choose to visit Tropoja, via the Tirana-Koman road axis.
Lake Koman is a narrow, twisting lake that stretches across Northern Albania. It is nestled in the steep mountains of the Kukës and Shkodra region. Some say that, the ferry ride “deserves to be on the world’s classic boat trips.” The lake expands the most remote areas of Albania, from the village of Koman to the village of Fierza, near Bajram Curri.
The lake was created in 1978 by the construction of the Fierza hydroelectric dam bordering all three of the region’s biggest districts. The lake is formed by water from Drini i Zi, Drini i Bardhë and the Luma River.
Lake Koman is home to 13 different species of fish, molluscs, crabs and amphibians.
Locals use the ferry as one of the only travel tools to reach their remote villages.
The best way to explore the beauty of this lake and the villages around it is by taking the ferry so that you can enjoy all of the virgin nature surrounding the lake.
Sunbathing, camping and fishing are also options to enjoy the surrounding beauty of the area. The recommended time of the year to take the trip is during the summer but any time of the year is beautiful.
The untouched beauty of this region is almost like it has been lost in time. The duration of the ferry trip is around two hours.
