Maja e Thatë is a high mountain peak of the Albanian Alps (Prokletije) in Albania.〔Military topographic map of Albania (1:25 000): K-34-52-D-a (M. JEZERCES)〕 It is located within Valbonë Valley National Park, roughly northwest of Valbonë and rises more than above the village. The mountain’s southern and western lower slopes are relatively rich in beech and pine forests, while the higher slopes consist of very steep dolomite and limestone rock walls, suitable for mountaineering and rock climbing. ==Geographic setting and description== Maja e Thatë has an elevation of and is located northwest of Valbonë village, in the district of Tropojë, Kukës county, in Albania. It lies within the massif of Kolata, in the eastern part of the Albanian Alps (Prokletije) mountain range. Maja e Thatë rises above the village of Valbonë by more than , but being surrounded by higher peaks within its massif and because high-altitude mountain passes connect it with them, Maja e Thatë’s topographic prominence is insignificant.〔 The mountain pass Qafa e Rupës (Qafa e Kuqe) at 2130 m elevation,〔 northwest of Maja e Thatë, detaches it from Maja e Rosit (2524 m), while the tectonic-erosive mountain pass of Rrethi i Bardhë ((アルバニア語:Qafa e Rrethit të Bardhë)) in the east detaches Maja e Thatë from Maja e Lugut të Ujit (2482 m), which is part of Kolata block.〔 Glacial activity north of the mountain has created several small cirques in its surrounding troughs ((アルバニア語:Lug)): Lugu i Rupës, which stretches along east-west direction and Lugu i Persllopit, northeast of the mountain, along SW-NE direction. The shortest trail connects its nearest village, Valbonë with Maja e Thatë through Lugu i Rupës. The mountain can be reached from Vusanje in Montenegro through the mountain pass of Persllopi (2039 m),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Topomap of Prokletije )〕 which is part of the border between the two countries, which subsequently continues with Persllopi trough ((アルバニア語:Lugu i Persllopit)) west of Kollata mountain (2555 m) until the feet of the rocky northeastern face of Maja e Thatë.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ditari nga Qafa e Preslopit – Kollata, 2011 by Ilir Luta )〕 The peak seems insurmountable from the northeast〔 owing to its very steep rocky faces, which start directly from the trough surface. The summit is a sharp ridge, and its crest has jagged edges. Horizontal monoclines are visible through all the mountain’s northern rocky face, giving it an imposing appearance. Maja e Thatë can be seen quite impressively from the highest peaks of Grykat e Hapëta – Zhaborre mountain range, running in southwest-northeast direction, south of the villages Rragam and Valbonë, as well as from Maja e Rosit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maja e Thatë」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
