Maja e Hekurave, Mountain summit in Albanian Alps, Albania
Located at an elevation of 2561 meters, Maja e Hekurave extends across a limestone terrain with sharp ridges and steep rock formations.
During the Ice Age, glacial activity carved deep valleys and shaped the mountain's current geological features, creating numerous karst formations.
Local communities maintain traditional shepherding practices in the surrounding valleys, following seasonal patterns established through generations of mountain life.
The ascent requires proper mountaineering equipment, and climbers need to register with local authorities before attempting to reach the summit.
The mountain contains several underground water systems that feed into the Valbona River, supporting the region's complex hydrological network.
