In 1958 an auxiliary dam of stone blocks was built whose function was to prevent abruptly the entry of water to the site &#8220;Ramna Skala&#8221;, where today&#8217;s dam was built. From the swollen branches, stones and soil, the auxiliary dam began to fill with soil, and over the years the beautiful waterfalls were created.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2075\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2075\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2075 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/keepitrelax.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_9735-640x426.jpg\" alt=\"beautiful waterfalls\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keepitrelax.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_9735-640x426.jpg 640w, https:\/\/keepitrelax.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_9735-640x426-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2075\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo via <a href=\"http:\/\/zase.mk\/makedonska-ubavina\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.zase.mk<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These waterfalls are a special attraction for visiting by the local population, domestic and foreign tourists and a great corner for educating young people about its natural values.<\/p>\n<p>In the past years, the Municipality of Kocani has realized a project that provides good accessibility to the waterfalls themselves and their immediate surroundings, setting up information boards and road signs to enable information on the trail, biodiversity and natural characteristics of the site, clearing the track and the part around the waterfall from fallen branches, shrubs, stones, fallen trees along the river.<\/p>\n<h2>Promotion and promotional meetings<\/h2>\n<p>Promotion of waterfalls through a website, information material (posters and flyers), holding promotional meetings with different categories of visitors.
