The Titov Vrv ( Macedonian Титов Врв , Cyrillic Titov Vrh ) is at 2747 m the highest peak of the Šar Planina and after the Korab, the second highest mountain in North Macedonia . It is located about 12 km west of Tetovo .

The Titov Vrv ( Macedonian for Tito's summit ) was named after the former Yugoslav head of state Josip Broz Tito . Before he was called Golem Turčin (Great Turk).

A stone tower almost ten meters high was built on the summit around 1957, which was quite damaged over time. Volunteers restored it at the end of 2016 so that it can now serve as a refuge.

The ascent from Popova Šapka to the top takes around five hours.
