Tourist Attractions
Koleshino Waterfall
The Koleshino Waterfall is enchanting in every season. During the summer it is refreshing to your senses, and in winter it will astonish you with its frozen beauty. It can be found at an elevation of 610 metres, on the Baba River in the heart of the Belasica Mountain, surrounded by maple trees and stone cliffs. The water of this waterfall falls from the height of 16 metres.
Smolare Waterfall
The Smolare Waterfall is found above the village of Smolare, at an elevation of 630 metres, located deep in the Belasica Mountain where the Lomnica River springs from among the hundred-year-old beech wood trees.
This waterfall is unique in Macedonian because the water falls from the height of 36 metres, the tallest in the country. A pedestrian path was constructed in May 2003 to make the waterfall accessible to visitors. It is 580 metres long, and has 300 stairs built from local stone, one small wooden bridge and one gazebo with a span of 16.5 metres. Along the whole length of the path there is a wooden fence built from the local materials.
