A high lift system for an aircraft includes at least one lift flap arranged on a wing forming a gap between a leading edge of the wing and a trailing edge of the lift flap in an extended position of the lift flap, and at least one flap adjustment mechanism for moving the lift flap between a retracted and at least one extended position relative to the wing. The wing includes a depression with a leading depression edge for accommodating the lift flap in a retracted position, and arranged in such an area of the wing that a correspondingly formed trailing edge region of the lift flap includes a curvature, by which the gap between the leading edge of the wing and trailing edge of the lift flap is convergent. A convergent and improved gap increases the efficiency of a high lift system without any active or movable means.
