==Geography== The Radika proper is long, but measured from the most distant source in its watershed, that of the Crni Kamen river, it is long. Overall, the Radika belongs to the Adriatic Sea drainage basin, draining an area of itself. It is not navigable. The Radika has huge possibilities for the hydroelectric power production, which is partially used in its upper course.
