Macedonian steppe


Information from Dr. Renata Ćušterevska, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University, Skopje



I suggest you go to the Ovce Pole railway station ( 41.805194° 22.009666°), where you can see very
rare Halophytic communities, and you can see steppe vegetation in the direction of the village
Bogoslovec (41.774540° 22.020794°).
