Just an hour away from Tirana, nestled in the heart of nature, lies the village of Shëngjergj, a haven of beech and pine forests, crystal-clear springs, and lush meadows that uplift the soul.
Every water source in this village offers a stunning landscape, but the Shëngjergj Waterfall stands out as one of the most captivating attractions for visitors. Its beauty, along with the scenic journey through greenery filled with turnip and chestnut trees, creates a breathtaking panorama.
Among the must-visit tourist spots in Shëngjergj are its picturesque lake—enhancing the charm of the grazing animals nearby—and the mountain with geological formations dating back to the Ice Age, where you can witness hundreds of naturally carved pits of various sizes and enjoy mesmerizing views.
Shëngjergji is also renowned for its warm hospitality and delicious local cuisine, beloved by visitors. One of the region’s special delicacies is the famous Sugar Pie, a treat unique to this area.
Inhabited since ancient times and historically known as Tomadhe and Tamadea, Shëngjergji remains a largely undiscovered tourist destination. However, its breathtaking landscapes and rich heritage make it an incredibly appealing retreat for nature lovers and explorers alike.
