Very scenic mountain area located between Lake Ohrid and Lake Prespa. Good for observing birds of the alpine highlands.
In the lower wooded part of the Magaro Mountain area, Central European woodland species can be expected, including Şakrak, Küçük ağaçkakan, tits and others. As soon as you leave the tree line behind, classic species of the high mountains can be observed, including Kaya kırlangıcı, Kulaklı toygar, Taşkızılı, Sarıgagalı dağkargası and Dağ incirkuşu. There are regular sightings of the elusive and sought-after Kaya Kekliği. In addition, Tarlakuşu, Taşkuşu, Çayır taşkuşu and Ökse ardıcı can be found on the plains. It is worth keeping an eye on the sky to look for raptors such as Arı Şahini and Yılan Kartalı.
Magaro Mountain has a hikers' car park on the road from where hiking trails go directly up. Click on the P in the map for directions. Aroundf the car park you can already look for Kır incirkuşu and Kızılsırtlı örümcekkuşu. The path is well signposted and leads through the forest for about 30 minutes and then continues in the open terrain. There is no connection to public transport. The circular walking route indicated on the map is about 8 km.
