Guri i Kuq Lake

Guri i Kuq Lake (Albanian: Liqeni i Gurit të Kuq; Serbian: Језеро Жути камен, Jezero Žuti kamen, literally: "Yellow Stone Lake") is a lake in Kosovo, located on the Žuti kamen mountain, in the Prokletije range. It is one of the largest lakes in the Kosovan part of the range after Gjeravica Lake and Liqenat Lake. Unlike Liqenat Lake, the Žuti kamen lake is not surrounded by trees but instead by large meadows. Just north of the lake is the Rugova Canyon.

Notes

  1. The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo is formally recognised as a sovereign state by 101 UN member states (with another 13 states recognising it at some point but then withdrawing their recognition) and 92 states not recognizing it, while Serbia continues to claim it as a part of its own territory.
