Alexander
Beautiful place with amazing views, but the road from Tirana is rough — long gravel section, very dusty, and slow (about 15 km/h). Regular cars can make it, but it’s hard on the suspension. Don’t go there with a clean car 🙈 One star off for the road.
Ronaldo
The Bovilla reservoir/canyon is a must see sight if you are near tirana, the road leading to the canyon isn’t the best and bumpy but it’s more than worth it, you can either walk up the roadway or hike up to the top of the mountain for a breathtaking view, on the top there’s also a very nice tavern with amazing foods and bereaved while also having a view of the lake.
Gabor
Driving here by car is a bit challenging, due to the poor quality of the road. But it's absolutely worth it! The view is majestic! camping is also possible. The restaurant's offer is good. Drink a coffee on the terrace and enjoy nature.
Dorina
The road to get to Bovilla lake is not paved. It’s bad and takes forever to get there, however, when you get there, it’s well worth it. The view is amazing and so peaceful. I hope they pave the road so more folks can enjoy this view and the village folks have a pathway to get home without destroying their cars and tires.
Patryk
Breathtaking canyon with a great build-up as you go to the top (and the reservoir). We had the pleasure to see it just before sunset - mind-blowing. Just watch out for cars with people that jus NEED to go to the very top in it, missing out on the views.
