About this landmark

Drilon Tushemisht Water Park, natural monument

Driloni or Voloreka as the people of Pogradec call it, is one of the wonders that nature has created. It is located 5 km east of Pogradec, near the tourist village of Tushemisht. Driloni is a karst spring that consists of three water lines that flow to spill out a few dozen meters further, on the south-eastern shore of the lake.

Visitors can take a boat ride, relax in nature or enjoy the freshness and beauty of the local flora and fauna. The swans and other birds that live here, as well as the fresh fish, offer a wonderful landscape. Fresh fish can also be found in the clean waters of Drilon, adding more value to the ecological and gastronomic aspects of the area. Along the river lies the Drilon Park, a recreational space with rich vegetation and a diverse animal world.

The park offers suitable facilities for families, couples and groups of visitors seeking peace, nature and activities in the fresh air. The itinerary to visit Drilon is Pogradec – Dogana – Shën Naum. Access is easy both by car and by bicycle or on foot, and in addition to nature, the area also has traditional restaurants and welcoming facilities for tourists.
