The Pek (Serbian Cyrillic: Пек) is a river in eastern Serbia. It is a 129 km long right tributary of the Danube,[1] flowing through the regions of Homolje, Zvižd and Braničevo. The river got a moniker Golden Pek, being one of the most gold-bearing rivers in Europe, with some of its tributaries bearing even more gold.[3]
