Although, the biggest concentration of the population is in the urban centers – Ohrid, Struga, Kichevo and Debar, however there is significant developing potential in the rural areas of the Region. Here, dominate juvenile chain mountains with very high peaks, untouched nature and exquisite landscapes, numerous protected areas, and among them the most important are the National Park Galichica and the Natural Reserve Jasen which are abundant with an extraordinary flora and fauna.
