There are numerous compelling reasons why Titov Vrv (Tito’s Peak) stands out as a hiking destination unparalleled in the Western Balkans, earning its place on the must-climb peaks checklist.

Named after Josip Broz Tito, the Marshal of Yugoslavia, Titov Vrv adds a historical dimension to the hiking adventure, making it a regional rarity.

At 2747 meters, Titov Vrv reigns as the highest peak in Shar Mountain National Park, boasting the highest mountain structure in the Macedonian mountains—the iconic Titov Vrv tower, a symbol of Macedonian mountaineering.

Typically, the hiking tour to Titov Vrv commences from the Popova Shapka mountain resort, offering two ascent options. Hikers can opt for the summer trail, meandering through unique pastures where encounters with traditional sheep flocks are inevitable. Alternatively, the winter trail traverses the high ridge of the mountain, passing peaks like Ceripashina, Karabunar, and Bacardan. This option involves greater cumulative altitude climbing and is recommended for hikers with advanced fitness levels.

From the summit, breathtaking vistas stretch across the Balkan Mountains, from Pirin and Rila in Bulgaria to Prokletije in Albania and Montenegro.
