Overview

Sotirë Waterfall (Ujëvara e Sotirës) is a stunning natural attraction located approximately 22 kilometers from the town of Gramsh in central Albania. The waterfall originates from a large spring in the northeast of Mount Tomorr, one of Albania's highest and most culturally significant mountains. The water flows through a crack in the limestone rock, creating a spectacle of cascading water that varies between 5 and 20 meters in height.The waterfall is actually comprised of two falls: a slender, higher cascade and a broader, more powerful stream that emerges directly from the cliff face. The crystal-clear water collects in a pool below, offering a refreshing experience for those brave enough to take a dip. The surrounding landscape is a true paradise, with thick oak forests and lush vegetation creating breathtaking views and a tranquil atmosphere.The journey to Sotirë Waterfall is an adventure in itself. The trail from the village of Sotirë is an enchanting experience for nature and trekking enthusiasts, taking you through forests, rivers, and meadows. The hike takes about one to two hours, depending on your pace, and offers the chance to discover the Gramsh region's natural diversity. The falls are most spectacular in the spring when the melting snow from Mount Tomorr increases the water flow.
