    Lake Skadar (also Lake Shkodra or Lake Skadar; Albanian Liqen/-i i Shkodrës, Serbian and Montenegrin Скадарско језеро Skadarsko Jezero, historically also Italian Lago di Scutari) is the largest lake on the Balkan Peninsula and the largest lake in Southern Europe. The lake takes its name from the formerly used Italian name of the Albanian city of Shkodra (Serbian/Montenegrin Скадар/Skadar), which lies at the southeast tip of the lake. The lake lies in the border area between Montenegro and Albania; the Montenegrin part of the lake's surface area is slightly larger than the Albanian part. To the southwest it is separated from the Adriatic Sea, which lies only 20 kilometers away, by the Rumija Mountains, which are up to 1,600 meters high, while on the northeast side there is a wide, partly swampy plain.
