Llogara National Park

Alpine meadows, pine forests and sea views on Albania's Ionian coast

Llogara sits on the Ceraunian Mountains, where limestone and dolomite peaks fall steeply towards the Ionian Sea along the Albanian Riviera. Winds along the pass have bent trees into odd shapes, such as the Pisha e Flamurit.
