Kanioni i Erzenit is a canyon in Albania carved by the Erzen River, where steep rock walls frame the waterway and expose different geological layers along the route. The gorge stretches for several kilometers, displaying the natural forces that shaped this landscape over time.

The canyon was shaped over millions of years through river erosion and displays the region's geological history. Archaeological finds suggest people lived in the surrounding area since ancient times.
