Region
The Albanian Alps, also called the Accursed Mountains or Prokletije, are the southernmost subrange of the Dinaric Alps, reaching from northern Albania into Montenegro and Serbia. Maja Jezercë, at 2,694 m, is the highest point of the whole Dinaric range.
The lakes here are high mountain lakes, such as Lake Dashi and the Great Lake of Buni i Jezercës, reached on foot along routes like the one between Valbonë and Theth. Much of the area lies in Albanian Alps National Park and Valbonë Valley National Park.
