Hidden Gem: One of Ponikva’s Finest Accommodations Nestled Deep in the Forest

Hidden Gem: One of Ponikva’s Finest Accommodations Nestled Deep in the Forest

What’s happening outside feels like a true summer. For some of you, these temperatures are a perfect excuse to head to the sea or a lake, while others seek refuge in the mountains. Today, we’ll introduce you to host Vlatko, whose accommodation is ideal for the second group of travelers.


Vlatko keeps alive the story of “Osogovska Kuќa,” which is part of the Kajak.mk accommodation base. At “Osogovska Kuќa,” there is a restaurant and rooms for rent, and what makes it truly unique is that it serves as a genuine hideaway nestled within a dense forest of pine trees. It is located at 1,260 meters above sea level, just 12 kilometers from Kočani and 8 kilometers from the tourist center of Ponikva.

The exact location is just 200 meters from the main road leading to Ponikva. The surroundings of Osogovska Kuќa villa are rich with hiking trails where visitors can easily pick herbs, wild berries (raspberries, blackberries, wild strawberries…), or simply enjoy the untouched beauty of the Osogovo Mountains. The food at Osogovska Kuќa is prepared in the restaurant area, which is open every day.
