Qafë Thanë (Macedonian: Ќафасан) is a mountain pass on the shores of Lake Ohrid in Albania.[1] It is located in the southeastern Albanian mountains, close to the border between Albania and North Macedonia. The border crossing point between the two countries is also named Qafë Thanë, and is a "primary gateway" between the two countries.[2]
