List of lakes of Serbia
(Redirected from Lakes of Serbia)
Most lakes of Serbia are artificial, created by damming numerous rivers of Serbia for the purpose of obtaining hydroelectric power or as water reservoirs. Natural lakes in the Pannonian Plain are shallow, occurring as river arms or bogs, or by aeolian erosion. Few natural lakes in the mountains are of glacial origin.[1]

- Note: in Serbian, the word for lake (jezero) is almost always a part of the lake's name. If the name is given as a noun, jezero precedes it (Jezero Gazivode), if the name is given as an adjective (usually with the -ko suffix), jezero follows it (Vlasinsko jezero).
