Albania is located in south-central Europe. Udhëkryq is in Erseka,
in the southeast of Albania near the Greek border. Located “One Kilometer
Closer to Heaven” (at over 3000 feet), Erseka is the highest city
in the Balkans. That means spectacular views and sunsets, as well as gorgeous
snow covered mountains in the winter.
There are wonderful things to see and experience in and around Erseka:
- The Albanian coast offers great swimming and beautiful aqua
pools along the Adriatic Sea
- Great fishing in Lake Ohrid features the rare and delicious Red Speckled
Trout
- A wild animal park just across the border in Greece (about two hours
drive) is one of the finest in Europe
- Erseka is not far from historic Thessalonica and Philippi
in Greece. Many students choose to visit these places on one of the
free weekends.
