Korab-Koritnik Nature Park

Korab-Koritnik Nature Park, Nature park in Dibër County, Albania

Korab-Koritnik Nature Park is a 55,550-hectare nature park in eastern Albania, listed as IUCN Category IV, that runs from the Kosovo frontier along the North Macedonia border to the Desha Mountains. It is named after the Korab and Koritnik mountains; Korab reaches 2,764 metres, the highest summit of both Albania and North Macedonia. The park holds valleys, rivers, glacial lakes, caves, canyons and dense coniferous and deciduous forest.

The area received formal protection status in 2011 to preserve its natural ecosystems. This decision recognized the ecological importance of the region for protecting rare species and their habitats.

Local communities have long practiced seasonal livestock grazing across the mountain meadows within the park. This way of life has shaped the landscape and continues to support the production of dairy goods and honey using traditional methods.

The park runs from the Kosovo frontier in the north along the North Macedonia border to the Desha Mountains in the south. Its climate is moderate humid continental, with wet cold winters and dry hot summers, and vegetation changes with altitude: oak woods at 400–900 m, conifers and beech with mixed broadleaved trees at 1,000–2,000 m. Check conditions with the local authorities before setting out.

Korab, at 2,764 metres, is one of only two summits in Europe that is the highest point of more than one country, shared by Albania and North Macedonia. It also ranks as the 18th-most prominent peak in Europe. The massif is mainly Paleozoic shale and limestone, with block structures and damaged Permo-Triassic gypsum.
