Korab

Mount Korab reaches an elevation of 2,764 meters, forming a natural border between Albania and North Macedonia with steep rock walls and craggy formations.

The mountain range developed during the Paleozoic period, composed of sedimentary rocks including shale, sandstone, dolomite, and limestone that shaped its current structure.

Local shepherds maintain traditional practices on the southeastern meadows of Mount Korab, continuing centuries-old seasonal grazing patterns in the region.

Climbers must obtain permits and present passports at border checkpoints when ascending from the North Macedonian side, while Albanian access requires no formal documentation.

The Korab Falls in the upper Dlaboka River valley reach 130 meters during spring, making them the highest waterfalls in North Macedonia.
