The River Sateska is located in the south-west of North Macedonia. Currently a tributary of Lake Ohrid, it originally flowed directly into the River Black Drim but was re-routed in 19611962. It now accounts for 39.36% of the Lake Ohrid watershed and is consequently one of its most important tributaries.

== Artificial Reroute == In 1961/2, the River Sateska was diverted from its natural path into the River Black Drim and instead routed into Lake Ohrid, which it enters on the northern shore between the cities of Ohrid and Struga. The Lake Ohrid catchment was expanded by 460 square kilometers in the process. The diversion was motivated by three main considerations: to reduce the sediment load upon Globočica Reservoir; to secure the hydroelectric potential of dams on the River Black Drim; and to drain Struga Marsh wetland areas.
