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[5] 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.
