The Fierza Reservoir (Albanian: Liqeni i Fierzës) is a reservoir in Albania and Kosovo.[lower-alpha 1] The Drin River and parts of the White Drin and Black Drin also runs through the reservoir. The size of the lake is 73 km², of which 2.46 km² belong to Kosovo. It is 70 km long and has a depth of 128 m. In the Albanian side of the lake there are many canyons and some small islands. The dam is 167m tall.[1] In 2014, the lake was declared a Regional Nature Park by the Kukes County Council.[2]
The reservoir was formed as a result of the construction of the Fierza Hydroelectric Power Station in 1978 by the Albanian government.
