Vukoça
Summit in Albania
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vukoça is a summit in the Accursed Mountains range of northern Albania. Rising at a height of 2,431 m (7,976 ft), it lies about 7 km southwest of the village Vusanje, near the Montenegrin border. Like other peaks in the range, it too has a steep, rocky summit. Climbing it is generally easier in summer, as snow and ice in winter make the route to the summit much more challenging.[1]
