Donkey's Peak" (Врв Магаро/Vrv Magaro) is the highest peak on Mount Galičica, at 2,255 m above sea level (GPS: 40.932886, 20.820534). It lies between the P 504 road between Lakes Ohrid and Prespa to the north and the Albanian border to the south. A 5.6 km loop starts from the road at Lipova/Липова, 17.7 km east of Trpejca. At the summit, a white and red marker bears the name and altitude of the peak. The views are superb: of the two lakes, but also of Mali i Thatë ("dry mountain"), which reaches 2,787 m in altitude, in Albania.

MOUNTAIN ROAD BETWEEN LAKES OHRID AND PRESPA

Natural site to discover
5/5
1 review

This 27 km-long former military road (P 504) offers magnificent scenery. It passes close to the Magaro peak and the Albanian border, crossing Mount Galičica between the two lakes. It connects road P 501, 3 km south of Trpejca, on the eastern shore of Lake Ohrid, with Tsarina/Царина, south of Oteševo, on the western shore of Lake Prespa. Don't miss a stopover at the Galičica pass, at an altitude of 1,660 m, to enjoy the grandiose views over the two lakes.
