This is an adrenalin ride, which is taking you around the highest peaks of the Bistra Mountain, facing the Korab massive (2,764 meters/ 9068ft) and enjoy the wonderful panoramic view of the Mavrovo Lake and the great mountain horizon. 

By visiting several sheep farms, this trip will get you closer to the Shepherd’s life and will offer you the possibility to get familiar with the Shepherds’ daily routines and to taste some traditional white cheese and yogurt as well. 

Our guides will take you up to the highest peaks and then down to Galichnik and SHERPA RANCH. Coming back at the SHERPA RANCH you will have picnic lunch during which everyone tastes the fresh Galicnik cheese directly from the local farms, along with some homemade pie, fresh vegetables and a shot of rakija. 

This is a soul-rewarding ride with breathtaking scenery.
