Valamara

Valamara is a massif located in eastern Albania. Converging on the borders between Korçë, Gramsh and Pogradec municipalities, it rises at a height of 2,373 m (7,785 ft). The northern boundary is marked by Guri i Topit (2,125 m) and the southern limit by Lenie (2,013 m).

The massif is predominantly composed of ultrabasic rocks. Its terrain features various glacial landforms with numerous glacial lakes, seven of which can be found above 1,600 m (5,200 ft). The eastern slopes give rise to the Shkumbin river, while the western and southeastern slopes are traversed by the Devoll river.

Valamara is a population hotspot for the critically endangered Balkan lynx.

Vegetation consists of beech and pine forests covering the lower regions and rich summer pastures flourishing in the upper regions.
