A Unique Pre-New Year's Trip in the Kožuf Region

A Unique Pre-New Year's Trip in the Kožuf Region

When you decide to take your employees or a group of friends out of the comfort zone of classic pre-New Year's celebrations, you'll realize that you've made many more people happy than you expected.


The team at Kajak.mk is the initiator of organizing such pre-New Year's gatherings with your close friends or colleagues through unique trips, where we support local heroes who do small things of great significance for tourism and all workers in the tourism sector.

Proof that every company can organize a pre-New Year's day trip somewhere in Macedonia is the company 'DB FLUKS.' A positive group of women who spent the weekend with our team.

We organized a visit to the site 'Smrdliva Voda,' located on Mount Kožuf. The tourist settlement got its name from the spring water that flows continuously, which has a very distinctive smell and taste, and is said to have healing properties.


We had our morning coffee while chatting at one of the local restaurants in the settlement, and the photos you're seeing were taken in its surroundings.

A trip to the south of Macedonia wouldn't be complete without a wine tasting of the wine produced in this region.


Our team always strives to arrange such tastings at small boutique wineries that establish a friendly relationship with their guests, welcoming us with a smile and offering plenty of information about the history of wine.

We visited the winery of our local heroine, Venera, who is the owner of Jostela. Venera prepared a true experience for us, starting with an informative session about the wine and the history of the winery, and finishing with a feast, music, and great conversations.

There’s nothing better than having around you the people you've worked with throughout the year and with whom you’ll continue into the next one.


DB FLUKS' is another company that is now part of the eco-company family. With their pre-New Year's team-building trip, this company donated 20 trees that will be planted during our spring reforestation campaign in Macedonia.
