Description

Maja Jezercë is a 2,694 m Albanian peak in the Accursed Mountains, part of the Dinaric Alps. Its identity, elevation and coordinates match Wikidata entity Q1032440. Buni Jezercë is the lake basin below the mountain; visiting the lakes is distinct from climbing the summit. The northern approach through Ropojana, Zastan and Buni Jezercë continues into rocky scrambling above Qafa Emal. A June 2015 ascent account shows how snow, rain and mist can make the summit traverse substantially harder.

Routes

Theth via Qafa e Pejës — pendekatan danau Buni Jezercë

Pendekatan pegunungan; bukan rute puncak lengkap

Cross Qafa e Pejës to the Buni Jezercë lake basin. The source describes a visit to the lakes below the mountain; continuing to the summit requires separate planning and is not included in this itinerary.

Theth via jalur menuju Valbonë — lintasan puncak historis

Sulit — medan bersalju dan navigasi mandiri

The July 2019 account follows the trail toward Valbonë before branching to the summit. The author descends a different route toward Theth and repeatedly loses the path. This outlines a historical traverse rather than detailed navigation; the source does not identify every junction.

Vusanje — Ropojana, Zastan, Buni Jezercë dan Qafa Emal

Sulit — batu rapuh dan scrambling terekspos

The northern approach follows Ropojana to Zastan and the Buni Jezercë lakes, then climbs to Qafa Emal. Above the col are friable rock, a steep gully and hands-on sections. The description comes from a 2011 trip; this is not the Grbaja approach.

Climbing Experiences

This collection distinguishes summit ascents from visits to the Buni Jezercë lake basin. Firsthand accounts from Albania and Montenegro describe rocky terrain, lingering snow and navigation demands; historical trips are not reports of current conditions.
