Galičica Pass
P504Trpejca to Oteševo
A high traverse across the karst spine of Galičica National Park connecting Lake Ohrid and Lake Prespa at nearly 1,600 m, where from the summit both lakes are visible at once.
From the fishing village of Trpejca on Lake Ohrid the road climbs steeply west through 20 hairpins up the limestone flanks of Galičica, easing across the high plateau to the Livada Pass (1,599 m) where a tri-country panorama opens, before the gentler descent to Oteševo on Lake Prespa. Paved but narrow; a park toll applies.
