Cangonj Pass

Albania

Cangonj Pass (Albanian: Gryka e Cangonjit; Albanian pronunciation: [yka e tsanit]) is a mountain pass located in the village of Cangonj, Korçë County, southeastern Albania. It is located between Mount Moravë and Mount Ivan south of Lake Prespa, and connects the Korçë Plain in the west with the Poloskë-Bilisht plain in the east. Crossed by the Devoll, the mountain pass was formed through the millennia by the excavating process of the flow of this river. In classical antiquity the name of the mountain pass was recorded as Tsangon, which was traditionally a border area between Macedon and Illyria, being part of an important east-west communication route.
