The Lengarica Canyon

Located near the Bënjë thermal waters, the Lengarica Canyon is one of the most impressive natural attractions in the Përmet area. Formed over thousands of years through the erosive action of the Lengarica River and the dissolution of limestone via karst processes, the canyon stretches for approximately 5.6 km, reaching heights of up to 100 meters while narrowing to a width of about 2 meters.

The canyon is part of the Bredhi i Hotovës-Dangëlli National Park and is renowned for its striking limestone cliffs, unique geological formations, and spectacular natural landscapes. It offers excellent opportunities for adventure tourism, exploration, and outdoor activities. Due to the rugged natural terrain and potential hazards, visitors should use appropriate safety equipment and be accompanied by certified professional guides when exploring the canyon. This ensures a safe and responsible experience, while also helping to protect its unique natural environment.
