Itinerary description

We start the trail from katund i vogel village. The road to go to the village is paved and you can go also with small car. Our main objective is to hike to the summit of Velivar 2373m. Velivar peak is the highest summit of the range known as Deshat by the people of Macedonia. Deshat is the southern part of ridge that separates Albania from Macedonia between Diber and Kukes; the northern part is the Korab Massif, with Maja e Korabit being the highpoint of both countries. Velivar provides some unusual views of other peaks which are typically admired from the opposite side, such as Korab (now seen from the south) or Mali i Dejes and Kurore e Lures (from the east). The trail is visible but it is not marked, so better to have a gps device.
