The Nerodimka (Serbian Cyrillic: Неродимка, Albanian: Mali i Nerodimës) or the Nerodime is a mountain range located in the south of Kosovo. It is named after the Serbian legend of the woman who cannot deliver a baby (Serbian: Неродимка, Nerodimka, meaning "woman who cannot give birth"). The mountain has two high peaks, Bukova Glava 1,721 m (5,646 ft) and Kurkulica 1,549 m (5,082 ft).

Geography

The Nerodimka/Nerodime mountains are located just a few kilometers north of the Sharr Mountains, only split by the Siriniq Valley. Nerodime forms a continuous east–west range along with the mountains of Zhar and Jezerska planina between the cities of Prizren and Ferizaj. In the mountain originates the Nerodime river, a left tributary of the Lepenc. Many small streams originate on the mountain and then flow downwards to meet the Lepenc.
