History


Description

Shpella e Pirogoshit (Pirogoshi Cave) is a huge shelter in the middle of a vertical limestone cliff above Kanioni i Gradecit. There is a very well maintained trail with iron railings to the cave. It's signposted from the road, it's a 500 m walk through a quarry and along the canyon walls. Actually there are several caves which are more or less shelters without a dark section. But there is one section wit some speleothems. The trail and the cave entrances offer great views of the limestone gorge with its vertical walls.
