It has an extensive northern slope, which is ideal for skiing. The peak is also connected with Konjushka Peak and one can see Prevalla from the top. The name of the peak in the local Albanian language isGuri i Çarë which literally means Creviced Rock. The Serbian toponym is used in the Yugoslav maps. The origin of the peak’s name comes from a group of creviced rocks located 100 m away from the peak, which are noticeable from Prevalla. On a side note, the peak is home to the biggest herds of chamois. This peak is completely located in Kosovo’s territories and in the old maps its altitude is noted as 2466 m.
