Day Tour To The Ohrid Lake From Tirana
Description
After driving from Tirana we will join the picturesque village of Lin. A fishing village at the foot of a hill on a peninsula. By going down the village you can enjoy the view of the lake. On the way to this village, you will see abandoned buildings of the former chrome mine in Prrenjas.
Another small village on the shore of Lake Ohrid, Tushemisht served as a natural setting for the filming of some of the greatest movies of our country.

The lake and the mountains on the horizon offer you a breathtaking view!
