The Junik Mountains (Albanian: Bjeshkët e Junikut, Serbian: Juničke Planine), part of the Accursed Mountains, are on the border between Albania and Kosovo. They reach a height of 2,280 m (7,480 ft). On the Kosovo side is the Dukagjin region, some 8.5 km (5 mi) to the north-west of the Junik commune. Moronica Park, in southwestern Kosovo, marks the beginning of the Junik Mountains.[1] The 1999 Battle of Košare was fought along the slopes of the Junik and Accursed Mountains.[2]
