Shutman Lake (Albanian: Liqeni i Shutmanit; Serbian: Шутманско језеро, Šutmansko jezero) is one of the largest mountain lakes in the Sharr Mountains in Kosovo.[a]

Geography

Shutman Lake is of glacial origin[2] and located in southern Kosovo, in the municipality of Dragaš. It lies on an elevation of 2,070 m (6,791 ft) above sea level. The lake has a maximum length of 160 m (525 ft) and a maximum width of 100 m (328 ft). It is 1.10 m (3.6 ft) deep.

Notes

  1. ^ a b The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo is formally recognised as an independent state by 100 UN member states (with another 13 states recognising it at some point but then withdrawing their recognition) and 93 states not recognizing it, while Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory.
