Located in western North Macedonia, Mavrovo National Park is the largest national park in the country, covering an area of about 730 square kilometers. The park straddles the Mavrovo, Shar and Bistra mountain ranges and is known for its magnificent alpine landscapes, glacial lakes and pristine forests.
The park is home to rare animals such as brown bears, wolves and lynx, and over 1,000 species of plants. The iconic Mavrovo Lake and the 2,764-meter-high Tito Peak form the core of the landscape, and in winter you can also experience the excellent snow at the Mavrovo Ski Center.
The park preserves 14th century buildings such as the St. Jovan Bigorski Monastery and the traditional mountain village of Galki. Visitors can go hiking, skiing and bird-watching, and the wildflowers in spring and summer and the forest colors in autumn are particularly attractive.
The park is located about 90 kilometers from the capital Skopje, about 2 hours by car. The recommended length of visit is 1-3 days. The best season is the outdoor period from May to October or the ski season from December to March.
