North Macedonia Elevation Map
North Macedonia has a very rugged terrain with major mountain ranges shaping most of its borders. For example, the Šar Mountains and the Osogovo are located to the northwest separating it from Serbia. Whereas the Nidze Mountains (part of the Dinaric Range) form its border with Greece to the south. But the exception is the three large lakes, Lake Ohrid, Lake Prespa, and Dojran Lake, which lie on its southern borders. At 2,764 meters (9,068 feet), Mount Korab is the highest peak in North Macedonia. Not only is it the highest in North Macedonia, but it’s the fourth-highest mountain in the Balkan Peninsula.
