Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. An amazing place to walk around. There are cheap kayaks there that you can see, but it is more recommended to take a cruise in a large motorboat that is very cheap for half an hour. You can also walk around on foot, but I think it is unnecessary. Un pur joyau naturel, à deux pas de la capitale ! Le Matka offre des paysages à couper le souffle, entre falaises imposantes et eaux émeraude. Idéal pour une balade en bateau, du kayak ou une randonnée. Un lieu apaisant et majestueux, parfait pour s’évader de l’agitation urbaine. Incontournable en Macédoine du Nord ! Beautiful place and very peaceful when on the water or hiking trails. rides or kayaking are reasonable prices as are the drinks at the cafe nearby. Caves are not extensive, but well worth a visit. A few words of warning... there are snakes if you go hiking, car parking is difficult, so get there early and the paths can be steep and narrow. Matka is a located fifteen kilometers southwest of Skopje. It covers an area of approximately 5,000 hectares and is one of the most popular recreational areas in North Macedonia. Lake Matka, located in the Matka Canyon, is the oldest artificial lake in the country. Ten caves can be found in the Matka Canyon. The most popular, Vrelo Cave, is located on the right bank of the Treska River and can only be reached by or kayak. Numerous stalactites can be seen in the cave, including a large stalactite in the center, known for its shape as "The Pinecone." At the end of the are two lakes. The smaller one is 8 meters long and 15 meters deep, while the larger one is 35 meters long and 15-18 meters deep. Matka is also a "reserve" for numerous plant and animal species, including some unique to this region. Near the marina is the Monastery of St. Andrew, but unfortunately, it is closed to visitors. I a kayak or to the Vrelo Cave. Parking can be difficult on weekends, so it's best to start your early in the morning. The only thing not matching is the noise of the engines of the boats, they have to be electrically powered... Süper "What a beautiful place to visit! Stunning and amazing atmosphere here.

A lot of cars, we paid 5€ to a restaurant to park our cars in a safe place. I having nice pair of walking shoes and avoiding summer ones, since it is all going uphill.

Super spacer piękne widoki No police. Zero safety there. Only rich who deal with hotel can have a nice trip. Divan kanjon Matka treba posetiti makar jednom u životu. Ovako lepu prirodu treba doživeti i uživati u njoj dok ste ovde. Uvek ću pamtiti divne trenutke vožnje brodićem i šetnju po kanjonu sa najboljim mužem na svetu. Moja ljubav, kanjon i ja. Ima li šta lepše? While there are more spectacular Canyons out there, it's still well worth a from nearby Skopje. Taking a to the over the water is a definite plus If you're into it, u can the Vrelo caves If you can, in the late afternoon. The pre-golden hour sun there is amazing. Przepiękny Kanion, obowiązkowo do zwiedzenia w Macedonii. Dojazd asfaltową drogą, możliwość noclegu kamperem nad brzegiem rzeki. Warto płynąć statkiem do jaskini Valeo i ją zwiedzić (zwiedzanie pieszo, powrót na łódkę). Sam wąwóz jest bardzo długi, przejście zboczem zabezpieczane barierkami i metalowymi linami. Warto przejść choć część wąwozu pieszo i pooglądać go z różnych miejsc- sam rejs to zdecydowanie za mało. Bardzo ładnie Not an easy hike with kids. An area for pictures: the price was 8,5€ for one passenger. friendly capitan and everythink was great Very beautiful! Amazing experience! If you visually i renting a kayak and being more adventurous 😊 If you either pets or kids, you might want to hop on a instead.🫶🏼 The hike is easy but still not the safest for kids or people with low stamina. You can still walk a little into the first part to get the nice views for those nice gram posts! 🫶🏼🥰 Каньон красивый, но еще более красивая пещера. Обязательно нужно ее увидеть Kanyona araçla üsküpten yaklaşık yarım saatte gidiliyor. Araçla park yeri var. Kano ve teknelerle gezi yapılıyor. 25 dk kısa tur ve 1 saatlik mağarayı da gezebildiğiniz turlar var. Mağaraya tekne ile girilmiyor! Tekneden inip 2 dk yürüyerek çıkıyorsunuz. Mağara derin değil 10-15 dk yeterli. Ayrıca oldukça uzun ancak bazı yerleri biraz tehlikeli yürüyüş parkuru da var. Very beautiful place. I kayakimg in the river but it takes about 3-4hours to go to the and back and the is not very significant so I would just to relax and look at the mountains from kayaking in the river:) Had a chance to see Matka and Vrelo by and I highly to not skip a when travelling to Skopje. Place itself with a unique flora and fauna offers stunning views. Unfortunately, I have also noticed that the place is quite polluted with litter Matka kanyonu biraz bakımsız ama manzarası güzel değer içeride ufak gezi tekneleri ve kano kiralayacak yerler, klise,küçük otel,tuvalet ve restorant var mükemmel bence görülmesi gereken yerlerden Beautiful view of the macedonian nature Beautiful and trip.
