It has taken a while to set it all up, but now we start the Tour

Lots of photos on the WebPage. For 4x4 photos look in the photogallery to the folder Tony Moerkens. Every month more new photos.

From the middle off May all mountain passes should be free of snow and we can welcome any group of 6 people or more.

It is totally safe to drive to Macedonia.
Myself I drive true Hongaria and Serbia. It takes less time than crossing the borders of Slovenia and Croatia. Especially in the summer.
Taking the Ferryboat from Italy to Greece is expensive, cost a lot of time and the amount of Km to drive stay the same.

All photos on the WebPage are from Macedonia although it sometimes looks like Moab, USA

I just get back from the Karadica Mountain and Matka Lake,
There was a lot of rain and mud. In two weeks it will be dry. That’s better for driving in the mountains. With rain and fog it takes to much time to get anywhere.
I’m just always trying to find new routes to improve the Tour.

There is a lot of space in Macedonia for driving 4x4. No problems about where you can or can not go.

The only thing you need a licence for is fishing.
I just have to see how far your 4x4 has to stand in the water before you need a fishing licence

The only place that is restricted is Pelister National park. But I think by the time you come here, we will have permission to go all the way up the mountain track here as well.

I live in the North-west of Macedonia where the Off Road possibilities are limited.
Because the mountains here are high the roads are mainly dead ends into the mountains, passing a few villages and then end close to top of a mountain
In the south-east it’s the best. Hundreds and Hundreds of miles Off-Road.
Here I have been driving without seeing an other car or asphalt the whole day.
Organizing things here is not a “day in the Park” but you’re right, it beats any day in the Office. And it’s all in a few hours reach.
