The Jablanica ( Macedonian Јабланица ; Albanian  Jabllanica or Jabllanicë ) is a mountain range in Albania and North Macedonia . It extends on the border in a north-south direction northwest of Lake Ohrid to Debar . It is around 50 kilometers long and reaches mountain heights of up to over 2000  m. i. J. The highest mountain is the Black Stone ( Macedonian Црн Камен Crn Kamen ; Albanian  Gur i Zi ) roughly in the center of the mountain. This mountain is 2257  m. i. J. high.
