Pukë

Mount Munella is known for its diversity of flora and fauna, as well as its mineral-rich soil. Thanks to these features, local and national stakeholders have voiced the request to make this area a natural park to preserve Munella’s peculiarities and make them more accessible to passionate hikers and visitors. With a maximum height of 1996 m above sea level, the massif expands between the valley of the Fan i Madhë River to the northwest and the Fan i Vogel to the southeast, straddling the Municipalities of Puka and Mirdita.

Mount Mërtur is located on the left bank of Koman Lake, in the territory of the Municipality of Fushë Arrëz, Iballë Administrative Unit, and between the villages of Mërtur and Aprripë Guri. The peculiarity of this massif is represented by the steep, rocky peak that reaches 1452 m above sea level, surrounded by forests and alpine pastures.

The Migjeni school-museum is one of the central points for Puka’s history, dedicated to the priceless contribution of the Albanian poet Millosh Gjergj Nikolla (in art Migjeni) to the development of educational institutions in Puka in 1936 and 1937.

The island of Sarda is located in Vau Dejës Lake, about 10 km from the centre of the municipality. The peculiarity of this island is represented by the presence of the remains of the ancient city of Sarda, which towards the end of the 15th century was an important economic and cultural centre of the northern region of present Albania.

The artificial lake of Koman, which takes its name from the village on its banks of the same name, is one of the unique beauties in northern Albania. Narrow canyons between sharp mountains and wooded slopes offer travelers a majestic and breathtaking landscape.

Vau Dejës Lake is a few kilometers from the city centre of Shkodra and was built using the reservoir of the Drini river in 1971, with the construction of a hydroelectric plant next to the town of Vau Dejës.
