Llogara Pass & Paragliding Tours from Vlore
The road south out of Vlore climbs to a little over a thousand metres through pine forest and comes over the Llogara pass to one of the great views in the Balkans: the Ionian a kilometre straight below, and the Riviera running away to the south. Caesar landed on the beach at the bottom chasing Pompey. Today the pass is where the paragliders launch.
