The SH 5 branches off from the SH1 south of Shkodra and leads via Vau-Deja , Puka , Fushë-Arrëz and the Qafa e Malit pass to Kukës . Shortly before, it joins the A1 motorway . The SH5 ends at the Morina / Vërmica border crossing .

Expansion status

The road is paved throughout and at least six meters wide. It winds in many curves through numerous valleys and over many passes, which makes rapid progress impossible.
