Summer tastes different among mountains, clear waters and adventures of Lake Koman

TIRANA, August 15 /ATA/ Surrounded by canyons and mountains, Lake Koman has become a must-visit destination in northern Albania, drawing travelers from near and far for unforgettable boat and ferry cruises.

Prime Minister Edi Rama shared on social networks images from tourist boat trips on this lake.

“Mountain peaks, crystal waters, and wild adventures: summer on Lake Koman tastes different,” Rama wrote.

For tourists, the journey continues from Lake Koman to the stunning Shala River. This popular destination offers scenic boat rides and fun water activities.

Lake Koman is a stunning fjord-like reservoir on the Drin River in northern Albania, fed by the Shala and Valbona rivers. Stretching 34 kilometers from Koman to Fierzë, the lake nestles between the mountains of Shkodra and Kukës counties. It is remarkable that this wild, beautiful landscape stems from a dam built near Koman village in 1978.

Taking less than three hours, the boat journey from Koman to Fierzë stands out as a premier travel experience in Albania. Cruising the emerald waters reveals breathtaking panoramic views of untouched canyons and towering peaks.
