gjeravica (1)

Đeravica or Gjeravica (Serbian Cyrillic: Ђеравица; Albanian: Gjeravica) is the second highest mountain peak in the Prokletije mountain range and the Dinaric Alps chain, after Maja Jezercë. It is the highest mountain in Kosovo[a], and the highest mountain of Serbia, according to the view held by the government of Serbia that Kosovo is part of Serbia. It has an elevation of 2,656 m (8,714 ft) above sea level. Đeravica is located in the western part of Kosovo, in the municipality of Deçan. Before 20th century, Đeravica used to call Kaluđerovica (Kaluđer on Serbian means monk).

Gjeravica is the highest mountain of Kosovo. Between 1992 and 2006, it was the highest mountain peak of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and then of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro. Up until the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence, Đeravica was indisputably the highest mountain of Serbia. The Government of Serbia (supported by some other states) still considers Kosovo to be part of Serbia, and according to this view, Đeravica is still the highest mountain of Serbia.
