Qeparo Old Village
Qeparo i Sipërm
A half-abandoned stone village on the coastal hillside, with atmospheric lanes, churches and views over the bay.
Qeparo is divided into a new village by the sea and an old village on the hillside. The old village dates back to the Middle Ages. In the second half of the 20th century, residents gradually moved down to the coast, leaving behind many stone houses, small churches and flagstone paths. Some of these have been restored as guesthouses and restaurants. From the old village you can look down on Qeparo Beach and the bay towards Porto Palermo. The view is especially beautiful at sunset. It is about 14 km southeast of Himarë town. Cars can reach the village entrance, but the mountain road is narrow and requires slow driving. The new village by the sea has a quiet pebble beach.
