Trpejca

Trpejca is a small and picturesque fishing village located on the shores of Lake Ohrid, in southwestern North Macedonia. Nestled at the foot of Mount Galičica, near Ohrid, the village is known for its spectacular setting between the mountains and the crystal-clear waters of the lake.

With its traditional houses, narrow streets leading down to the waterfront and peaceful pebble beaches, Trpejca still preserves the atmosphere of an old fishing village. For centuries, fishing on Lake Ohrid was an important part of local life, while today tourism has become one of the main activities during the summer months.

Trpejca is an ideal destination for travelers looking for nature, tranquility and beautiful views of Lake Ohrid, away from the busier tourist areas. From the waterfront, visitors can enjoy spectacular sunsets, swim in the clear waters of the lake or explore nearby bays and beaches by boat.

The village is also an excellent starting point for discovering some of the most interesting places in the Ohrid region, including Galičica National Park, the Monastery of Saint Naum, the Monastery of Zaum and the archaeological site of the Bay of Bones.

The combination of mountain landscapes, crystal-clear water, local traditions and fresh lake fish makes Trpejca one of the most charming places to visit on Lake Ohrid. A small corner of North Macedonia where life still moves at a slower pace.
