Spreading over an area of about 300 square miles (780 km2), the Mavrovo National Park features deep canyons, snowy peaks and blue lakes combine with dense forests that abound with diverse wildlife. Mavrovo is one of the leading tourist areas in the country along with Ohrid, Prespa, Dojran, Popova Shapka (Šar Planina), Pelister, and Kruševo. It was established in 1949 by a law passed by the National Assembly of Macedonia. Later the legislation was changed considerably, enforcing a much stricter protection system. According to the new law, the park is divided into three zones: strict nature reserves, managed reserves, and a tourist zone.One of the appealing features of Mavrovo National Park is its vivid topography. The relief of the park contains three Alpine mountain systems: the Šar, Korab and Bistra mountains. They are exceptionally high, the Šar and Korab, reaching heights of more than 9000 feet (the Korab peak is the highest in Macedonia with its 9100 feet). These tremendous mountains are distinguished by chains of snowy, jagged peaks and broad grassy plateaus below them.Between the three mountains extends the Radika gorge. More than 15 miles (24 km) long. Vertical cliffs higher than 1,000 feet (300 m) rise above the waters of the Radika river. In addition, the park area contains many other interesting natural phenomena—the highest waterfall in the Balkans (with a vertical fall of approximately 400 feet), alpine bogs in the Šar mountains as remnants of the Ice age, rare karst relief (including beautiful caves) in the Bistra mountains, as well as numerous glacial lakes throughout the Alpine zone."@en }
