#tripaway Nivica Canyons are a natural wonder, discovered and explored only in recent years by many visitors. They are located near the village of Nivica. The canyons of Nivice have a length of up to several (km), an average width of about 15 m, and a depth of up to several tens (m). They are formed by the erosion of the Nivice Stream, part of the Bencha Stream, into carbonate rocks. The stream of Nivica, below the village of the same name, has formed a gorge with a very narrow bed, with a length of about 3 km to the basin of Merje, a place where it joins the Well of Progonat. Its bottom is very regular, with fractures or thresholds and jerks, accompanied by negative shapes, which are pits and grooves deep in the rocky bottom of the canyon, with oval-shaped cauldron-shaped appearance, with clear and clear water. The water separates and falls from great heights (30-40 m) and forms waterfalls, like that of Guva and two others below it. The canyon, though ever deeper, is presented with full of natural contrasts, cliffs, stepped bed and numerous caves on the rock face. They are visited by taking the road Tepelene-Progonat-Nivice.#visitalbania #tripaway
