The Republic of Macedonia is a predominantly mountainous country. The average elevation of the terrain is 850 meters. Approximately 80% of the country consists of hills and mountains. The mountains are divided into two basic groups: Šar Mountains mountain range that continues to ''West Vardar/Pelagonia mountain range'' (also known as Dinaric range) and Osogovo-Belasica mountain chain (also known as Rhodope range). Šar Mountains and ''West Vardar/Pelagonia'' mountain range is a continuation between the Dinaric Alps and Pindus mountain ranges, whereas Osogovo-Belasica mountain chain is a continuation of the Rila-Rhodopes mountain massif. ''Šar Mountains'' mountain range: * Šar Mountains * Mount Korab * Mount Bistra * Stogovo * Galičica * Dešat * Jablanica ''West Vardar/Pelagonia'' mountain range: * Baba Mountain * Jakupica * Nidže * Kožuf ''Osogovo-Belasica'' mountain range: * Osogovo * Belasica * Vlahina * Maleševo * Plačkovica * Ogražden The mountains in the Osogovo-Belasica group are older mountains. They are spread across the eastern part of the Republic of Macedonia. The mountains in the Šar Mountains group are younger mountains, situated in the western and central part of the country. They are divided in 3 subgroups: area around the Vardar river, area around Pelagonia valley and the area in the north-western part of the country.
