The western border of the massif is drawn by the Prespa Lake and the Resen Field, and the eastern with the Bitola Field. Approx. 65% of the massif is on Macedonian territory and the rest 35% on the Greek one.
Approach: There are several approaches to the mountain. The best is the one via Bitola, by the asphalt road through the villages of Trnovo and Magarevo to the “Molika” hotel which is only 15 minutes on foot from the “Kopanki” mountain lodge; or by an asphalt road through the village Nizhopole, from where on foot following the mark is the easiest way to reach “Golemo ezero” (Big lake) mountain lodge. A gravel road usable in summer continues from this point. To the “Neolica” mountain lodge lead marked trails through the villages Lavci and Bukovo.
