About skiing in Popova Šapka
Popova Šapka is a high mountain ski base above Tetovo. The Macedonian ski federation identifies the established hotel area and the maintained uphill road. Marked skiing, lessons and guided off-piste or cat-ski products should be booked as separate activities with clear meeting points. A broad mountain-terrain area figure is not a groomed-piste kilometre total. Check the actual lift report and the hotel approach for the travel day.
