Llogara Pass

"This high-altitude route connects the Dukat Valley in the north with the coastal town of Himarë in the south, serving as a vital link for both locals and travelers. The nearest city to the north is Orikum, while the charming village of Dhërmi lies to the south, making the pass a crucial thoroughfare for those exploring the area. As part of the Llogara National Park, which spans an area of 10.1 km² (3.9 sq mi), the pass offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes, characterized by steep mountains and lush greenery. The park is a haven for nature enthusiasts, providing opportunities for hiking, wildlife observation, and enjoying the unspoiled beauty of the Albanian Riviera. The region's diverse flora and fauna add to its ecological significance, making it an ideal destination for those seeking adventure and natural beauty. Historically, the Llogara Pass played a strategic role during the Himara Revolt in November 1912, when a Greek military unit was stationed there to defend the Himara region from Ottoman-Albanian attacks coming from Vlorë.
