Llogara Pass 🇦🇱 SH8 road, stunning views overlooking the Albanian riviera

Llogara Pass (Qafa e Llogarasë) is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 1.043m above the sea level, located in Vlorë County, in Albania. It's one of the best coastal drives in the world. The road to the summit is, now, fully paved; it’s called SH-8 road. The pass is the highest point on the main coastal road between Vlore and Sarande. The first road through Llogara Pass was built in 1920 but until as recently as 2009 the road was very narrow, almost single lane, partially a dirty road or a road with an old dilapidated coating. The road is very steep, hitting an 11% of maximum gradient through some of the ramps. The drive can be quite challenging as the road is narrow at spots, high elevation means constant braking or frequent gear changes, tight turns and lack of barriers at some places. An episode of the TV program Top Gear shot in 2010 made known the beauty of this road outside the country. Kawasaki Z1000SX
