Fig. N.- Shar Planina – one of the most famous Macedonian mountains. It is located in the final northwestern part of the Republic of Macedonia. As one of the largest and highest mountain masses, it dominates not only in this section, but also beyond. Stretches between the Metohetic valley of the northwest, the Polog valley from the south and southeast, to the east of Skopska Crna Gora is separated by the Kacagenka Gorge on the Lepenec River, west of the Korab was separated with the valley of the pepper river and top sand (2.105 m), And the Canyon Gorge of Mavrovska Reka makes the border between her and Bistra. After the crest of Shar Planina, from the locality of the West of the West, so the C “next to the Kačanka gorge in the east, keep the border between the Republic of Macedonia and Kosovo. On our territory there is an area of 912.8 km². High and luis twisted was 80 km long, and widely 10-20 km. Sharplanin had two orographic directions of stretching: S-Si and J-JZ and meridian, S-J. The part of the Shar Planina, from Ljuboten to Kobilica, is uniform and extends as a single mountain range. The other parts of Shara, southwest of Cobilica, are different and have special names: Karaniqololcelolcel In a geotectonic view, Shara belongs to the chariot group of dinaries, the common mountains occurred at the time of the younger Alpine gathering. As a whole, Shar Planina is a horst that is highly elevated in relation to the methany and Polog valley. The Polog regional raster, in the vicinity of Tetovo and Gostivar, has the occurrence of thermal and thermomineral sources. The geological composition makes mainly the Paleozoys of crystalous shales, and through them to a lesser extent, marbled limestones and dolomites in the form of towels, beams and lenses with Mesozoian age are. On separate places on the Shara through the crystalline shales broke out coils. In the coils of the Ljuboten massif there are reserves of chronrom ore (Radusa). In the relief of Shar Planina, as the oldest forms, the peaks of Shar Planina Sharpina should be the first form, From these initial strangers, more peaks with a height above 2,500 m: Titov peak (2,747 m), which is the highest of Shar Planina and second in the Republic of Macedonia, Borislav (2,662 m), lake knocks (2,604 m), grandmother ( 2.533 m), Cobilica (2,526 m), black top (2,578 m), Vratsa (2,582 m), Ljuboten (2,499 m), etc. The many peaks are built of limestone rocks, in whose footprint springs from which surface water flows are formed. According to the Passal valley, up to the height of about 1,200 m, the erosion stuminal is slightly bent to descend further through steep sections. Lower slopes are usually covered with thick places of deluvial material, and in the footer is a fluval sediment, with a 40 km long, there is a length of 40 km. All of Shar Planina is dissuised with numerous river flows, among which the river foam is most significant. At the time of the Pleistocene, the high-mountain parts of Shara were affected by intensive glaciation, that is, they were under the chairs. Therefore, there are many and striking fossil, glacial forms represented by: Circles, rolls, and morborne. Many circles are filled with water, so today Shar Planina, in the Republic of Macedonia, there are 27 ice lakes (of which 19 permanent and 8 occasional), and after the mountains Rila and Pirin in the RB, it is considered the richest mountain with lakes in the Balkans. The glacial lakes are placed in the highest parts of the mountain, between 1,800 and 2,500 m asg. Famous light lakes are: Bogovsko, large and small fame, Karanikolik, Gorno and Dolno Depperko, Black Lake, etc. Many river valleys, in the upper parts have the shape of Wallov, and are built with the movement of the chairs. From the high parts of Shara, Vardar of Yi and the Radika of the JZ, running 20 river flows. Among them the most famous are foam (36.8 km), Maza (24.3 km), etc. The plant life is diverse and buoy. The forest belt of Shara ends at about 1,600-1.700 m. Over the forest belt extends spacious and lush forest pastures, which occupy an area of about 550 km², which is the largest pasture zone in the Republic of Macedonia. Various relief forms, the numerous peaks, bitters, fast and attractive river flows, most glacial lakes, the pleasant mountain climate, the buoyed plant world, the proxy pastures, are elements that attract many visitors. It contributed to the Shara to distinguish a number of attractive sites: Popova Shapka, Leshnica, Jelak, Ljuboten, Maza, etc., on which there are excellent ski terrains. Lit.: A.
