The Blue Eye National Park stands as one of Albania’s most captivating natural attractions, drawing travelers to its magical waters near the village of Muzinë. Located along the route between Delvinë and Gjirokastër, this site is defined by a remarkable spring that bursts forth from the depths of the Mali i Gjërë mountain range. As the largest and most intriguing of the eighteen springs in the area, it serves as a primary destination for those seeking to witness Albania's pristine natural beauty.


What makes the Blue Eye truly unique is its distinct oval shape, which resembles a human eye, featuring a dark center that appears to emerge from the deep underground. The spring reaches depths of up to fifty meters, creating a mesmerizing gradient of deep blue and vibrant turquoise colors that seem almost unreal. Surrounded by lush, dense vegetation, the area provides a refreshing atmosphere that is perfect for peaceful walks, quiet contemplation, or simply listening to the soothing sounds of the flowing water.


Recognized officially as a natural monument, the site is an ideal location for visitors of all ages to connect with the environment. Whether you are an avid photographer looking to capture the striking contrast of the water against the green forest, or a traveler simply wanting to breathe in the fresh mountain air, the Blue Eye offers a serene escape. The surrounding landscape is filled with diverse flora, making it a sanctuary for those who appreciate the quiet majesty of nature.


A visit to this natural wonder is a highlight for anyone exploring the southern region of Albania. The combination of its geological significance, the clarity of the water, and the tranquil environment ensures a memorable experience for every guest. As you wander through the park, you will find that the Blue Eye is not just a scenic spot, but a testament to the incredible geological forces that have shaped this beautiful corner of the Mediterranean landscape over countless centuries.

At 0.5€ per person, entrance is basically free! Absolutely worth the visit. Parking was 3€ for up to 3 hours, which also feels like a steal. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because there was trash and graffiti along the path, which was rather disappointing. It may also be worth noting that the restaurant at the end of the path to the Blue Eye is closed when outside of the main tourist season, so bring along a bottle of water and some snacks if you’re planning to spend a while there.

Beautifully place to walk and it was interesting to see the lake. If you arrive with a car you need to pay 300 lek and 50/per person for entrance. If you drive with the motorcycle you might not need to pay parking. We stayed there maybe just for an hour, but it seems like you can hike around that area.

The Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër), Albania ​The Blue Eye is a must-see natural wonder! It's absolutely breathtaking. ​The main attraction is the water—it’s impossibly clear and vibrant, glowing with deep sapphire blues in the center eye and stunning turquoise rings around the edges. It truly looks like a giant, mesmerizing eye staring up from the earth. The surrounding nature is lush and green, making the whole spot incredibly picturesque. ​From the parking lot/entrance gate, it's about a 2 km walk one way to reach the main spring. The path is paved and generally easy, but it can be hot! ​ If you don't want to walk, there are convenient ways to get there: ​You can often rent an electric scooter at the entrance. ​Look for the road trainwhich shuttles visitors along the path for a small fee. ​ The water is cold. Go early in the morning to avoid the crowds and get the best photos. It's a short but unforgettable stop!
