It's part of Valbona River canyon, near Dragobi. The Valbona River has its springs on the eastern slope of Qafa e Valbones, and right after the Waterfall of Valbona the river disappears under the calcareous gravel on a seven-kilometre long riverbed section. The crystal clear waters of the river Valbona, provide a healthy environment for fish, such as the salmon trout (Salmo trutta marmoratus). Amphibians and reptiles are represented here by the spotted salamander (Salamandra salamandra), alpine newt (Triturus alpestris), yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata), common grass frog (Rana temporaria) and the adder (Vipera berus).
