Golem Grad, also known as Snake Island, is a mesmerizing gem nestled in the Macedonian part of Lake Prespa. This enchanting island exudes an unparalleled beauty that captivates all who set foot upon its shores. With its lush greenery, rugged cliffs, and pristine waters, Golem Grad is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. Beyond its breathtaking landscapes, this island holds significant importance as a biosphere reserve. It serves as a haven for countless plant and animal species, many of which are endangered or unique to the region. Golem Grad stands as a testament to the delicate balance between human existence and the preservation of our precious natural world.
