The Galičica National Park (Национален Парк Галичица; Nacionalen Park Galičica) is one of three national parks in North Macedonia. It covers an area of 22,700 ha in the southwest of the country in the Galičica Mountains and extends from the shore of Lake Ohrid to that of Lake Prespa, which are interconnected underground. The national park also includes Golem Grad Island, located in Lake Prespa, which is known for its snake population.

In the park are eighteen villages with more than 5,000 inhabitants, which belong to the municipalities of Ohrid and Resen. However, some areas of the park are strictly protected and can only be accessed with permission from the park authorities. These 985 ha include Golem Grad, the Saint Naum springs near Lake Ohrid, the cliff coasts along the two great lakes and the area around the Magaro (2,254 m), the highest mountain of the Galičica. Golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos), peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) and griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus) live in the high mountains.
