Parker och natur i Skopje

Parks and Nature

Skopje’s green spaces range from central memorial gardens to high-altitude glacial lakes. The city’s urban core is anchored by the expansive City Park and the monument-filled Park of the Woman - Freedom-fighter. Beyond the center, the Skopje valley contains the protected Katlanovo Swamp, a key site for birdwatching, while the Jakupica mountain range hosts the Salakovski Ezera, two glacial lakes situated at over 2,100 meters above sea level.
