The Dinaric Alps, also known as the Dinarides, are a mountain range in Southern and Southcentral Europe, stretching approximately 645 kilometers from Italy to Albania. They separate the Balkan Peninsula from the Adriatic Sea and pass through several countries, including Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Serbia. The range includes the Accursed Mountains, the highest section, with Maja Jezercë in Albania being the tallest peak at 2,694 meters. Formed primarily of Mesozoic and Cenozoic sedimentary rocks, the Dinaric Alps are part of an active tectonic region shaped by the collision of the Adriatic Microplate with Europe.
