About Viroit Cave
Viroit Cave is a spring-fed freshwater cave beside Lake Viroi near Gjirokaster, entered from a roadside lake edge. It is a cave-trained diver site with a cool, clear opening that quickly narrows into an overhead passage, so seasonal flow, cold water, and controlled entry planning matter more than reef-style navigation.
