Rivers of Albania


This is a list of rivers that are situated wholly or partially in Albania. The rivers flowing into the sea are sorted north to south along the coast. Rivers flowing into other rivers are listed by the rivers they flow into. Some rivers (e.g. Morača) do not flow through Albania themselves, but they are mentioned for having Albanian tributaries. They are given in italics. The names are in the Albanian indefinite form, the confluence is given in parentheses.

An alphabetical overview of rivers of Albania is given below this list.
