'''Marko's River''' ({{langx|mk|Маркова Река, Markova Reka}}; {{langx|sq|Lumi i Markut}}) is a river in North Macedonia. It rises in the chain of Jakupica at 1,900 m above sea level, then descends to the northeast and flows into Vardar, at an altitude of 212 m.<ref name="RL16">Трифуноски Ф. Јован. „Слив Маркове Реке - антропогеографска проматрања“. Филозофски факултет на Универзитетот - Скопје, 1958. стр.16</ref> It crosses in particular the villages of Batinci, Markova Sušica and Dračevo. It flows into Vardar near the suburb of Gorno Lisiče, on the outskirts of Skopje.<ref name="RL16"/>

Marko's River has a maximum depth of four meters. It is subject to summer drought and snowmelt in the spring, and therefore experiences a very different flow depending on the season.<ref name="RL16" /> Its name, along with the village of Markova Sušica and Marko's Monastery, pays homage to Prince Marko, the ''de jure'' Serbian king from the 14th century. The river has great potential for irrigation.
