About Ohrid for Solo Travelers
A medieval city above one of Europe's oldest lakes — solo travelers find Ohrid's clifftop churches, Byzantine icons, and impossibly clear lake water a deeply atmospheric and completely uncrowded Balkan discovery.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Ohrid is one of the Balkans' most beautiful and undervisited UNESCO sites — the lake, the medieval churches carved into the cliffsides above the water, and the perfectly preserved old town make for an extraordinary solo couple of days. Swimming in Lake Ohrid (one of Europe's oldest and deepest lakes) from the old town walls is a perfect solo afternoon. Very affordable and very relaxed.
