Matka Canyon Skopje

One of Macedonia’s most beautiful natural attractions, Matka Canyon lies about 15 km southwest of Skopje and offers a striking landscape of steep cliffs and the tranquil waters of the Treska River. Explore the canyon by boat or kayak, walk along the scenic trails, visit the historic St. Andrew’s Monastery, or take a boat trip toward Vrelo Cave. With its rich biodiversity, hidden caves and centuries-old heritage, Matka is an ideal half-day or full-day escape from the city and one of the experiences we most recommend during a stay in Skopje.
