The Guri i Kuq Lakes or Liqenet e Kuqishtes (Albanian: Liqeni i Gurit të Kuq, lit. 'Red Stone Lake'; Serbian: Језеро Жути камен, romanized: Jezero Žuti kamen, lit. 'Yellow Stone Lake') are glacial lakes in Kosovo, located on the Guri i Kuq mountain, in the Accursed Mountains range.[1]

They are the largest lakes in the Kosovan part of the range after Gjeravica Lake and Liqenat Lake. Unlike Liqenat Lake, the Guri i Kuq lake is not surrounded by trees but instead by large meadows. Just north of the lake is the Rugova Canyon.
