Kalista at Lake Ohrid

by Pijlmans - last update: Apr 1, 2008

Kalista is a small settlement and monastery complex on the northwest shore of Lake Ohrid. It is located about 5 km from Struga on the road to Radozda.
St Bogorodica Monastery Complex
Within the St Bogorodica Monastery of Kalista you will find the very interesting cave church of Sveti Bogorodica (Holy Mother of God).

A bit further down the shore, high in the cliffs of Lake Ohrid, is a very small cave church dedicated to St Atanas.
You could combine a visit to Kalista with a visit to Struga and Radozda. Kalista and Radozda can be reached by car from the turn-off at Frangovo on the E850, or by taking the road along the coast from Struga through Kalista.

Another option is to go to the villages with a boat taxi from Ohrid, or by bus from Struga.
