The Lepenac (Albanian: Lepenci ; Macedonian: Лепенец ; Serbian: Лепенац , Lepenac) is a river in southern Kosovo and northern Macedonia, a 75 km (47 mi) long left tributary to the Vardar river.
The Lepenac springs out on the Kodža Balkan mountain, east of the city of Prizren, Kosovo, at an altitude of 1,820 m (5,971 ft). It flows eastward, into the župa of Sirinić, between the Žar mountain from the north and alongside the northern slopes of the Šar Mountains from the south. From the Šar Mountains it receives many small tributaries, most notably the Suva reka, as it passes next to the villages of Sevce and Jazhincë, the ski resort of Brezovica and a small town and regional center of Štrpce.
The Lepenac continues between the Šar Mountains from the south and Nerodimka mountain from the north, next to the villages of Biti e Poshtëme, Gotovushë, Brod and Doganaj, where the river makes an elbow turn to the south entering the Kosovo field.
For several kilometers the Lepenac flows parallel to the Nerodimka river, flows next to the villages of Kovaçefc and Bob, and receives its major tributary the Nerodimka from the left at the town of Kačanik, at the beginning of the Kačanik gorge.
Lepenac is a village in the municipality of Brus, Serbia. According to the 2002 census, the village has a population of 932 people.
