Micro cache in the city of Skopje.
Skopje is the capital and largest city of the Republic of Macedonia with about a third of the total population. It is the country's political, cultural, economic, and academic centre. It was known in the Roman period under the name Scupi. The city is called Shkup or Shkupi in Albanian and Skopia in Greek.
Skopje is located in the in the Skopje statistical region of northern Macedonia, in the centre of the Balkans, approximately halfway between Belgrade and Athens. The Vardar River, which originates near Gostivar, flows through the city then flows south passing the border into Greece and eventually flowing into the Aegean Sea. In Skopje, the Vardar River is 96 kilometers from its source near Gostivar. The flow in the city is almost equivalent to the flow at its delta, near Thessaloniki. The river makes a few large meanders in Skopje and is crossed by several bridges, five in number in the centre.
Several rivers flow into the Vardar in Skopje. The longest is the Treska, which is 130 km long. Others include the Lepenec, Pcinja, Kadina Reka, Markova Reka and Pateška, which are all less than 70 km long.
Cache is located on the one of the bridges. The nice, historical stone bridge is located approximately 400m far. Please be careful, do not drop cache to river.
