When visiting Skopje, and you are in the mood for a light adventure to explore the rural area around Skopje, or if you are like me, and want to escape from the busy urban chaos into the tranquillity of nature, a bike tour to visit Matka Canyon is your best choice. Our tour is a discovery of the suburban and rural part of Skopje, away from the crowds. We take backroads with very little traffic, following a route that I have specially designed for you. We pass suburbs and villages, we cross suspended bridges, while I tell you the local stories, only to get to an amazing nature area - Matka Canyon with cliffs rising from the water straight up. And there, options of activities awaits us: hiking, kayaking, boat ride, or simply enjoying a view of the river. Allow me to guide you in an experience that through Matka Canyon you will learn stories about the local culture, history, technology and the present day life. This bike ride, and Matka Canyon just might be your best memory from Skopje.
The proposed itinerary is as follows, though it can be customised to your liking: - We start from your hotel. - We ride to Matka Canyon ~16 km (10 mi) or ~ 2 hours, and along the way we: - pass part of Skopje City and stop at landmark areas (Debar Maalo, Skopje City Park) at a pace we agree at the beginning of the tour. - pass "Saraj" Recreational Centre. - pass several villages - When we arrive at Matka Canyon we leave our bikes and have an optional activity upon your wish: hike up the mountain, visit to a monastery, lunch or a boat ride and a visit to Vrelo cave (be sure to tell me if you are interested in something). From 1 hours and more, depending on the activities selected. * for lunch I would recommend a special experience with one of the best tomatoes you ever had (dependent on the season). - After visiting Matka Canyon, we return the same way back to your hotel, ~ 90 minutes. For customizing this tour, please inquire for a quote.
