5.00I had a great time hiking to Magaro Peak with my guide, Peter. The hike itself was a workout, but you are constantly rewarded with spectacular scenery, so it was worth it. Peter was an excellent guide, attentive, encouraging and very knowledgable as well. I enjoyed our chats along the way. I would recommend this hike to anyone visiting Ohrid!
