Lake Ulza Nature Park, Protected nature park in Mat, Albania

Lake Ulza Nature Park encompasses 4,206 hectares of diverse landscapes including two lakes, mountains, hills, and dense forests near the town of Burrel.

The formation of Lake Ulza in 1957 occurred through the construction of a dam on the Mati River, leading to the development of the surrounding area.

The five villages within the park boundaries maintain their traditional costumes, particularly those reflecting the Mirdita Catholic heritage and local customs.

The park offers activities such as fishing, boating, kayaking, mountain cycling, horse riding, and trail hiking, with guided services available throughout the year.

The park contains two artificial lakes, Ulza and Shkopet, which support water habitats and create a complex ecosystem with sedimentary soils formed on gabbroic rocks.
