Maja Jezercë, Mountain summit in Malësi e Madhe, Albania
Cresta del Lago rises to 2,694 meters, making it the highest peak of the Prokletije range and the entire Dinaric Alps system.
British mountaineers Sleeman, Elmalie, and Ellwood completed the first documented ascent of the mountain on July 26, 1929.
The mountain holds significance in the traditions of the Malesori people, particularly the Kelmendi clan who inhabited the surrounding territories.
Climbers can access the peak through established routes from the village of Theth or Valbona, with local guides available for safety assistance.
Six mountain lakes border the northern side of the peak, including the substantial Big Lake of Buni Jezerce at its base.
