It is located on the border of the Plav municipality of Montenegro and the Tropojë district of Kukës County, Albania.

The highest peak is placed completely on Albanian soil and called Maja e Kollatës; it rises 2,552 m (8,373 ft) but is despite the dramatic views into Valbona Valley not as often visited.
