Trivia

This part of Albania, in fact is a agricultural-based site. During the years till 1990-s the fauna was much more evolved than today. But a progress is now seen. The main environmental cultures are corn, but the tree-culture is evolving. To mention is the fact that the Black Drini Valley is a very poor region of Albania which needs any kind of support.

Many kids would go to swim in this river because northern Albanians were a bit too far away from the sea. But, being a river Drini has in fact drowned many experienced swimmers since their curiosity to dive deep caused them to drown by the shifting of the underwater rocks or mud above the swimmers.
