Gjeravica or Đeravica (Albanian: Gjeravica; Serbian Cyrillic: Ђеравица) is the second-highest mountain peak in the Accursed Mountains mountain range and the Dinaric Alps chain, after Maja Jezercë. It is the second-highest[6] mountain in Kosovo,[lower-alpha 1]. It has an elevation of 2,656 m (8,714 ft) above sea level.[1][2][3][4] Gjeravica is in the western part of Kosovo, in the municipality of Junik.

Features

Gjeravica is somewhat different from the rest of the Accursed mountains in its lack of the stony, limestone texture the other mountains in Accursed Mountains have.^{[citation needed]} Many large and small glacial lakes can be found near the summit. The largest of the lakes is Gjeravica Lake, which is just under the summit and is the origin of the Erenik river.

Gjeravica and the Accursed mountains are mostly known for the growth of chestnuts.^{[citation needed]} There are also wild strawberries growing in Gjeravica during the summer.^{[citation needed]}
