From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Volujak (Albanian: Maja e Vjeljakut/Maja e Vjelakut/Maja Vjelakut/Majae Vjelakut/majën e Vjelakut;[1] Serbian: Волујак, Volujak) is a peak of the Prokletije range in Kosovo,[lower-alpha 1] reaching a top height of 2,014 m (6,608 ft). Volujak creates part of the Rugova Canyon. This mountain can be seen from the city of Peć because it is only a few kilometers west of it.[2]
