Suva Planina^[2] (Serbian Cyrillic: Сува планина, meaning "dry mountain") is a mountain in southeastern Serbia. It lies between the towns of Niška Banja to the northwest and Babušnica to the southeast, with a ridge branching towards Bela Palanka to the north. It was previously called Kunovica.^[3]

Pešturina cave on the mountain is the location of the first discovery of Neanderthal remains in Serbia, recorded in April 2019.^[4]^[5]^[6]
