Centuries-old olive groves, the Zajca Reservoir, and the Limuth River feature among the landmarks associated with Bërxullë. The area also has hilly, gently rolling terrain, with hills reaching up to 150 m, and 5.75 ha of forest. If you are considering the area as a possible place to stay, you can first get your bearings by noting the landscape and landmarks, then check a specific rural accommodation option.

Hills, forest, and olive groves

Bërxullë is characterized by hilly, gently rolling terrain. The hills reach up to 150 m; this is the maximum height of the hills, not a uniform elevation for the entire area. Forests cover 5.75 ha. The description of the terrain complements the height figure: it characterizes the terrain, while 150 m indicates the maximum height of the hills. The forest area is also a separate measurement and cannot be equated with elevation. Kodër Bërxulli is known for its stands of centuries-old olive trees. If you are considering Bërxullë for its rural landscape, you can view its relief, forest area, and olive groves as distinct aspects of the area's character.

Water and a cultural landmark

The Zajca Reservoir is located in Kodër Bërxull. The Limuth River flows through the Bërxullë area and is 2 km long. The location references differ: Kodër Bërxull is given as the reservoir's location, while the Limuth is described by its course through the area and its length. This helps distinguish the two water features when finding your way around.

The “Ebu Baker” Mosque is on Zajza Street, in the Bërxullë administrative unit of the municipality of Vorë. A 2022 petition described it as being visited by numerous worshippers. If you would like to include the mosque in your travel plans, check in advance about visiting opportunities. Alongside the landscape features, the mosque serves as a distinct cultural landmark to consider when planning your trip.

Directions and getting there

The center of Bërxullë village is about 1.6 km from the Limuth Bridge, to the right of the Tiranë–Durrës highway. The Qafë-Kashari–Rrinas national road also runs through the Bërxullë area. These are two different points of reference: the approximate location places the village center in relation to the bridge and highway, while the national road runs through the area. For your specific journey, check current roadworks and access conditions, as road conditions and access points may change.
