Удовски Остров

Udovsko Island is a landform within the Vardar River featuring vegetation and exposed banks along its edges. The terrain shifts seasonally as water levels rise and fall throughout the year.

The island formed through sediment deposits over centuries and shaped how people navigated and used the land around Valandovo. This natural process continues to influence the river's character today.

Local fishermen use methods passed down through families, and their boats are a common sight on the water during morning and afternoon hours. These practices show how the community has adapted to living alongside the river.

The island is easiest to reach from the main road leading from Valandovo town center toward the Vardar's eastern bank. Walking or driving along the river road is straightforward, and visiting during lower water levels offers better access.

The channels around the island create sheltered zones where water birds and fish species gather to feed and rest. These protected pockets along the river are especially important for local wildlife.
