Itinerary description
See https://mymacedoniablog.wordpress.com/ for more info about sightseeing and hiking in Macedonia
To get to the start of the hike to 4 lakes on Jablanica mountain (https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/labunishta-4-lakes-tour-jablanica-mountain-54792759), take the asphalted road from the village Lubanishta. Because this road may not be on every map yet, I uploaded the route here. The road from the village Lubanishta supposedly is shorter and in a lot better condition than the road from the village Podgorci, which may not even be asphalted. Note that although the asphalt road is in good condition, it is a very steep and curvy mountain road and our rental car only could manage some parts in first gear. The steep and narrow streets in Lubanishta are also quite exciting if you come from a flat country like the Netherlands!
If you do not mind driving on a stony dirtroad (see picture), you can also drive all the way up to the sheepfarm Labunishki Bacila (1 km) where the lake tour starts.
Many thanks to Sibel_J for helping me figuring out how to get there: https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/labuniski-bacila-strizek-nevestinski-grob-ezera-vo-albanija-labuniski-bacila-49125753!
