Kremenski Lakes (Bulgarian: Кременски езера) are a glacial lake group in the Pirin mountain range, southwestern Bulgaria.[1][2] They are located in the Pirin National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The group consists of nine lakes, seven permanent and two drying, in the narrow salient Kremenski cirque.[3] Kremenski Lakes are surrounded by the summits of Sivria (2,591 m) to the northwest and Dzhano (2,668 m) to the southeast, as well as the Kremenski ridge which ends with Kremenski peak (2,503 m).[1][4][5] They drain into the river Retizhe, a right tributary of the Mesta.[6]
