Set high in the Galičica mountains, within the National Park Galichitsa, the road to the summit is unpaved. 4x4 vehicles with high clearance only. The road is totally impassable in winters. The summit hosts a few communication facilities. Along the way there are some caves which were dug between WWI (there was a line of battle across the Galičica). The summit offers beautiful views on Ohrid and Prespa lakes.

Starting from the paved P504 road, at 1.593m above the sea level, the ascent is 2.8 km (1.73 miles) long. Over this distance the elevation gain is 382 meters. The average gradient is 13.64%. From the top you can see three countries on a clear day - Macedonia, Greece and Albania.
