Korce, Albania
Why Walk Korce
Korce sits at 850 meters in a highland basin in southeastern Albania, near the Greek and North Macedonian borders. Known as the 'city of serenades' for its musical tradition, Korce has a restored Ottoman bazaar, Albania's first brewery (since 1928), and the country's first Albanian-language school. The nearby Prespa Lakes, shared with Greece and North Macedonia, are a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
