Accommodation in Galičnik: A Local Experience from Food to Meeting Locals

Accommodation in Galičnik: A Local Experience from Food to Meeting Locals

If there's something worth pondering during these cold days, it's the question of where to explore in Macedonia during the summer. The readers and travelers of Kajak.mk differ from classic tourists who seek just accommodations without experiencing the essence of the destination they visit. As a platform, our goal is to provide you with as many insights as possible about the region where you'll be staying—or, as our 2023 motto goes: To be tourists in the shoes of the locals.

Today, we want to introduce you to the hosts of "Baba i Dede," a destination some of you may already recognize as a renowned gastro spot, but for many, this is a fresh accommodation recommendation in Macedonia.


"Baba i Dede" is a local restaurant that serves traditional cuisine and also offers accommodation in Galičnik.

We like to say that Galičnik is a village every Macedonian should visit at least once in their lifetime. As we often say, after visiting Galičnik, your patriotic love for Macedonia doubles!


The hosts who opened their doors to Kajak.mk's world say that Galičnik offers numerous opportunities for active and recreational tourism (some of which you can explore in the "Kade Ovde" category). Its location is ideal for short walks, including a visit to the Church of St. Peter and Paul, where you're almost guaranteed to meet a retired local in the churchyard, ready to share captivating stories about Galičnik.

Here, you'll also find the amphitheater, which becomes the heart of Galičnik during the summer, attracting many visitors who come to witness the iconic Galičnik Wedding and numerous other cultural events organized throughout the season.


The Galičnik region is rich in forest trails that lead through stunning nature, offering breathtaking views. Some of the most remarkable panoramas include the Govedarnik rock and, of course, the peak Medenica.

There is so much to share about Galičnik, but we want you to experience it firsthand at the destination.
