For centuries, shepherds have brought their sheep here to escape the scorching valley heat. If lucky, you can encounter one of these shepherds or hold a baby dear. This daytrip provides every time a different experience, you never know what you are going to get today in Mavrovo,
When entering the Natural Park of Mavrovo, you'll be dropped off in the most iconic village of North Macedonia, which is called Galicnik. The village of Galicnik is famous for the yearly traditional Macedonian wedding, where every single person on earth is welcome to enjoy Macedonian hospitality. From here, after a small break, the hike will start through grasslands covering plateaus and mountain ridges around Mali Sar. During the summer the area is covered in countless mountain flowers.
On the way back, you’ll have the chance to make a quick stop at the famous submerged church. Note that this depends on the level of the water. This is a great opportunity to take a photo before returning to Ohrid.
