Part of the only mountain range that is divided into three branches, Qelqëz, the tallest peak 1,662 m (5,453 ft), highlights the first branch which commences at Miçan Pass, continues through Qelqëz, Dëllënjë Pass and finally at Mali i Piskalit 1,437 m (4,715 ft), gradually descending towards the upper reaches of Lengaricë river in the southeast.

[1] The range forms a relief with an uneven and wavy appearance, featuring an asymmetrical slope.

It is primarily composed of flysch, with Paleogene limestone emerging between the layers.

[2] The sparse vegetation found in the lower sections of the western slope consists mainly of deciduous trees and shrubs.

Instead, there is a direct transition from bushes to Mediterranean conifers, which form several forests, most notably the Fir of Hotovë-Dangëlli National Park.
