Read MoreKomani Lake is a long, narrow reservoir on the Drin River in northern Albania, and these articles explain how to travel across it by ferry. Steep walls rise straight from the water, which is why it is often compared to a fjord, and the boat is the classic route between Shkodër and the Valbona valley. Our guide to the Komani Lake ferry covers how the Koman to Fierzë route works and how to reach the dock from Shkodër. Other articles follow the boat ride to the Shala River, collect facts about Albania's rivers, describe autumn hiking and cycling in the north, and share a group hike in the Alps.
