Geography
From the Albanian side, Gramos lies on the eastern edge of Kolonjë municipality, bounded in the northwest by the Morava mountain and in the southeast by Kamenik. It continues beyond the state border, into Greece, extending along the boundaries of Ioannina and Kastoria regional units, neighboured by the Smolikas chain to the south and Voio to the east.[2]
Geology
The mountain mass consists mainly of paleogene flysch, with smaller amounts of lower flysch and limestone, resulting in a complex tectonic structure. Above heights of 1,500–1,600 m (4,900–5,200 ft), various glacial features such as cirques and glacial valleys can be observed. The western and northwestern slopes of the mountain give rise to various branches of the Osum and Devoll rivers. Conversely, the northeastern and southern slopes are drained by the branches of Aliakmonas and Sarantaporos rivers.[3]
Biodiversity
Alpine meadows thrive in the northern and central regions, while the southern part is characterized by lush beech and conifer forests.[4]
