Great hiking trails starting from the foothill but best thing to do is take a bus to Sredno Vodno (Middle Vodno), and then continue up to the peak. There is also a gondola from Sredno Vodno which will take you to the peak pretty quickly. Coffee shop located at the peak but also some real gems of restaurants famous among locals at Middle Vodno

Drinks & Nightlife

There are several nice restaurants lined on the bank of River Vardar, facing the river. They are great for a coffee or lunch during the day, and to escape the hot Skopje summers or for evening drinks. Some, like Casa Cubana are also great for dancing
