Ubava (somewhere it is also called Ubovo – EN: Beautiful) – a mountain top of Mount Karadzica on the Jakupica massif in the central part of Macedonia. Its altitude is 2,346 meters. In fact, the name Ubava, which nowadays is mostly used for the highest peak, refers to a larger area of Mount Karadžica that includes the plateau between the peaks Ostri Vrv, Pepeljak and Kameniti Breg right on the ridge above the two Salakovski Lakes, the small valley that from this the area descends towards the sources of the Kadina River in the area of Juruchka Karpa and the stone (rocky) ridge that limits this plateau and valley to the west and whose altitude ranges from 2346, 2301, 2288, 2295, 2261 and ends again at 2346 meters in the south. In his book Materials for the study of Macedonia, the Macedonian revolutionary Gjorce Petrov wrote that Crn Vrv is connected to the foundations of Jakupica through the ridge Temna Buka, above which rises the pyramidal peak Ubovo (Ubava n.z.), which due to its height and location occupies the middle place between the peaks of Jakupica and Crn Vrv, and once a beautiful girl was killed on that peak, after which the peak is called Ubava.
