Actually, the area Mariovo is devided in 3 municipalities, Kavadarci, Prilep and Bitola. It was the only part of Macedonia which stayed out of reach from the Ottoman Empire, thanks to the beautiful girl Maria, who gave her life for that (very interesting story, if you come, you'll learn about it).
The place we are preparing is under the municipality Prilep, near the village Vitolište (you can find it on viamichelin.com, type
Vitoliste as destination), and its ca. 40 km. south-east from Prilep.
The area it self is very picturesque, beautiful rocks that reach out from the arable land, wealthy with old domestic fires, God sanctuaries and temples, archological and historical sites, the canyon of Crna reka (Black river)...
Anyhow, If I tell you that I have been there at least a couple of dosen times, and every time is more interesting than the previous...
If Mother Nature was to create a landscape aspeccially for motorcycle riding, on and off road, believe me, it would be Mariovo... if you don't believe me, come for your self and see...
