Syri i Cikllopit, Rock formation and structural basin in Tirana County, Albania.

The Syri i Cikllopit formation consists of a deep rock pool measuring 20 meters in width and 120 meters in depth within the Krraba gorge.

Local inhabitants tell stories of a giant creature that caused destruction in the area before meeting its end beneath the rocks of Syri i Cikllopit.

Deep scratches visible on the rock walls connect to Albanian legends about mythical creatures, with the heart-shaped lake adding to local storytelling traditions.

Located 4 kilometers from Krraba in Skuterre village, the site offers swimming opportunities during summer months and photography spots throughout the year.

A branch of the Erzen River flows through the formation like a small waterfall, creating a natural pool at the bottom of steep cliffs.
