In the southern part of the park there is a meadow called "Field of Mares" which offers a relaxing view, since its vegetation is miscellaneous with multi-color flowers and full of coniferous trees.
The glacial complex of Lura lakes are one of the most beautiful pearls of Albanian nature. The glacial lakes of Lura have a general surface of 100 ha. They are located in the northeastern part of the country in the district of Dibra.
The lake of Flowers is really astonishing with the big white water lilies in summer, leaving the impression of a big garden created by the hand of a mastermind.
