Bulqiza

It extends over a large area attached to the area of the “Dajti Mountain” National Park and near Qafë Shtama. It represents a large mountain massif, which consists of Triassic-Jurassic limestone. It is interrupted by several valleys, rich in streams, which often constitute the beginning of large rivers, as is the case of the Mati River. Several interesting mountains stand out, such as: Mali i Lopës (2,000m), i Snoit të Madh (1,846m), as well as Mali me Gropa (average 1,500-1,600m), quite unique, due to the karst pits present in it.
The name of Mali me Gropa is linked to the numerous pits that are very dense and have a strange appearance formed by the karst process, or the dissolution of limestone rocks, from which this mountain is built. The karst pits have the shape of hollows with diameters ranging from several meters to several tens of meters. They are closed, without surface runoff, while at their bottom there are sinkholes, through which rainwater penetrates into the depths of the limestone mass. This water emerges in the form of large springs around this mountain. Here we find many types of herbaceous and woody plants as well as animals of various kinds: earthly beauty, reptiles, mountain thrush, rabbit, fox, wolf, etc.

It is a glacial lake with a north-south length of 600m, an average east-west width of 300 m, a depth of 60 m, and an average surface area of ​​16.5 ha. The altitude above sea level is 1645 m. It is surrounded on three sides by very steep slopes, covered with beech and pine forests, which give the lake a rare beauty. It has crystal clear and cold water. During the winter it freezes on the surface. Due to its great depth and chromite deposits at its bottom, it has a black color. It is rich in a living and diverse world and forms an interesting ecosystem of alpine lakes.
