Explore the charming town of Ohrid, enjoy a serene boat tour, and uncover the hidden gems of this less-known European paradise. Whether you're a nature lover or a culture enthusiast, Lake Ohrid is a must-visit spot that promises unforgettable memories. Dive into the beauty of Lake Ohrid and see why it's a top destination in North Macedonia.

Lake Ohrid in North Macedonia is mind-blowingly beautiful. It's the most scenic lake in the Balkans (and, dare I say it, even in Europe!). It's a paradise not so many people know, so I was so excited to be here finally!

Lake Ohrid is shared between North Macedonia and Albania. Lake Ohrid is the oldest lake in Europe and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979.

On this trip, I explored the North Macedonian side of the lake. I based myself in Ohrid, the town by the lake. It's a popular destination for Macedonians, which is great if you want to soak up some local vibes.

I did a lot of walking around Ohrid, and later in the day, I joined a (small) boat tour visiting various places surrounding Lake Ohrid.

Honestly, this place is one for the books! Here are the places I've visited and should be on your must-visit places in Lake Ohrid, North Macedonia:

✅ About Ryan Pelle.

My name's Ryan, and welcome to my channel.

Instead of buying an expensive car or a Harley Davidson motorbike to get through my mid-life crisis, I started this channel instead 😂 As a newfound hobby, I'm documenting my walks/hikes and travels using the ever-reliable GoPro. The hope is that it encourages you - the audience - to explore the great outdoors and maybe give you some tips and ideas along the way.

I'm from the Philippines (in case you're wondering about the accent 😊) #pinoyyoutuber

I'm currently on a mission to visit all the countries in Europe.

Kitakits! (see you later!)

spremam se da uskoro dođem u posetu Ohridu. Nisam znao da ima toliko znamenitosti koje treba videti. Planirao sam nedelju dana ali , mislim, da je za obilazak, upznavanje i doživljaj mesta i kulture potrebno mnogo više. ... a da ne govorim i o kafaname, kafićima i restoranima
