Zagoria (Aromanian: Zaguria or Zagurii) is a former municipality in the Gjirokastër County, southern Albania. During the 2015 local government reform, Zagoria became a subdivision of the municipality Libohovë.[1] The population at the 2011 census was 411.[2] Since 2018, the region has been at the centre of the expanded Zagoria Nature Park.[3][4] Zagoria is also considered to be a distinct "ethnographic region" (Albanian: krahina etnografike),[5] traditionally consisting of ten settlements: Sheper, Nivan, Ndëran, Topovë, Konckë, Hoshteve, Lliar, Vithuq, Doshnicë and Zhej.[6]
