Jan S. Krogh's Geosite: Albania - Montenegro Boundary Points
Hani i Hotit, AL / Božaj, ME

Maps

Border marker no. 11 at this Albanian – Montenegrin border station should be situated on or very close to the 30 metres long road between the two border stations. Usually the Montenegrin welcome signs are located very close to the actual border line, but, unless it was removed, due to a fence and dense vegetation we did not find the marker. This sign was situated about on the border line, and with the Božaj border station in the background.     

Position: 42° 19' 49" N 19° 25' 11" E (WGS 84).

The border is in the middle of an about 30 metres long road between the two border crossing stations (Source: Autoriteti Shteteror per Infomacionin Gjeohapsinor Geoportal, asig.gov.al).  

The Montenegrin cadastral map is concordant with the Albanian map on the boundary location. (Source: Geoportal Crne Gora.)

According to this 1:10.000 Albanian map there should be an Albanian – Montenegrin (ex-Yugoslav) border marker no. 11 very close to the road, on the northern side. In south-southeast there was a sea border marker no. 1.   (Source: Autoriteti Shteteror per Infomacionin Gjeohapsinor Geoportal, asig.gov.al)  

The point was visited in July 2015.
