Located in the northern part of Albania, not far from Shkoder and just a stone’s throw away from the spectacular Valbona Valley National Park, Lake Koman is in fact the artificial lake (the reservoir). It was created when the hydroelectric power station was built in the 1980s on the Drin River with the 115-meters high dam on one side, near Komani village (hence the name of the lake).
Lake Komani is secluded and wild . The emerald water, looks unreal, meanders for over 70 kilometers through mountains, in the narrowest place surrounded by vertical canyon walls, the width is only 50 meters.
The ferry is a better option for admiring the landscape and especially for taking pictures as the upper decks can give you a better perspective of the landscape around.
