Lake Koman

Lake Koman (Albanian: Liqeni i Komanit) is a reservoir on the Drin River in northern Albania.

Lake Koman is surrounded by dense forested hills, vertical slopes, deep gorges, and a narrow valley, completely taken up by the river.

The narrowest gorge, which is surrounded by vertical canyon walls, is more than 50 m (0.031 mi) wide.

[3] A high number of bird species have been observed in the region, including the common kingfisher, common quail, grey heron, eurasian wryneck, great spotted woodpecker and black-headed gull.

[4] Smaller boats bring people and goods to remote villages, which are often far away from the lake, but can only be reached by water.

The vertical canyons of the lake are sometimes comparable to the Scandinavian fjords . [ 5 ]
