Kanionet e Osumit, Natural park in southern Albania.
The Osum Canyon extends for 26 kilometers through limestone formations, featuring vertical walls that reach heights of up to 150 meters.
The geological structures of Osum Canyon developed over three million years through continuous river erosion on the limestone rock formations.
Local communities preserve numerous tales about the canyon, including the story of Abaz Aliu, which forms an essential part of regional folklore.
The canyon offers six narrow sections for exploration, ranging from 1.5 meters wide at the riverbed to 35 meters wide at the upper edges.
Multiple underground passages and unexplored caves line the canyon walls, creating a complex network of natural geological formations.
