"Mostly Macedonia" Pijlmans's Profile


Hi there,

My space here on VT is mostly about Macedonia. My girlfriend is from Skopje in Macedonia and we live in Amstelveen, close to Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

If you are interested in Macedonia, check out my travel pages and tips about Macedonia in general, and the specific sections about the places we visited below.

The links in bold refer to pages and sights that in my opinion are extra worthwhile.

A special page dedicated to Hiking in Macedonia .

Skopje, the capital of Macedonia and the artificial Lake Matka.

The east side of Lake Ohrid: Ohrid, Leskoec, Velgosti, Ramne, Velestovo, Konjsko, Pestani and Trpejca.

The west side of Lake Ohrid: Struga, Kalista, Radozda, Oktisi, Vevcani, Visni and Gorna Belica.

The west side of Lake Prespa (Stenje), Konjsko and the uninhabited island Golem Grad.

The east side of Lake Prespa: Podmocani, Kurbinovo, Slivnica, Nakolec, Ljubojno and Brajcino.

Combine your trip from Skopje to Ohrid with some sightseeing and check out these places:

Along the main road from Skopje to Ohrid: Tetovo, Lesok, Gostivar, Tajmiste, Kicevo, Vrbjani, Lesani, Velmej, Meseista, Volino and Orovnik,

The east of Macedonia, from north to south: Kriva Palanka, Kumanovo, Staro Nagoricane, Kratovo, Lesnovo, Kocani, Vinica, Morodvis, Veles, Stip, Berovo and Strumica.

The archeological sites Heraclea Lyncestis near Bitola, Stobi near the village Gradsko, Bargala near Stip, Golemo Gradiste near Kratovo, Plaosnik in Ohrid, Roman Baths at Bansko and Skupi near Skopje.
