Farma Sotira, Leskovik

Albania, BIG SEE Tourism Design Award 2021 – Winner, Creative story and identity as experience, Tourism|

One of the first agrotouristic farms born in the Albania tourism sector. A small paradise, built with passion and love in the natural reserve of Germenj – Shelgur. Nowadays, Farma Sotira is one of the most visited destinations that offer agrotourism and nature tours. It offers accommodation in wooden houses, horse-riding, organic food and traditional dishes from our own vegetable garden. It is a family run place that is surrounded by beautiful nature and grass fed cows and sheep raised on a mountain in complete freedom and in harmony with the environment surrounding the farm.
