Kokojka (lit. 'Hillock'), sometimes known as Kokojka e Frashërit, is a mountain in southern Albania, within the municipal boundaries of Përmet. Rising at 1,553 m (5,095 ft) above sea level, it forms part of the mountainous relief separating the Dangëllia region from the neighboring territory.[1]
Geology
Kokojka is composed primarily of limestone and Paleogene flysch formations and features two peaks: Kokojka (1,553 m) and the higher Tabori peak (1,572 m).
Biodiversity
The mountain is covered by dense forest vegetation dominated by oak, with extensive stands of Macedonian fir (Abies borisii-regis) spreading near the summits. The fir forest forms a large, continuous massif that has been designated as a national park due to its ecological significance.[2]
