In the western reaches of Serbia, we crossed the Valjevo ravine (canyon) as if we were its first settlers, gradually and until a silence that has just broken the torrent of the river that we would break with our steps as we crossed it. A steam train transported us through the rolling green forests that began at Mokra Gora and stretched beyond the mountain tops on the steam tracks of the Sargan Eight Railway. An afternoon, flanked by an eminent and glorious sun, passed after the delicate flow of the strong Dunabe River from the small shores of Novi Sad to a narrow point that seemed the serene end of its overwhelming course. In another, our little pontoon conquered the many bends of the 10-kilometer-long Uvac River, hugged by the mountainous plateau.
Nature of Serbia: Serbia’s back and forth movements not only originate from its social change since difficult times. A nation with 75% potholes! What I mean is mountain! It is dotted with green and undulating natural parks, ravines, rivers and lakes. I spent seven days researching almost the entire extent of the nation west of its capital, Belgrade, from the Novi Sad coast to the Valjevo valleys, the Gostoljublje desert to the mountainous Zlatibor and the breadth of the Tara National Park to the gigantic and meandering Uvac Gorge.
If there is one thing that Serbia is not really known for, it is a fullness of unspoiled and unknown nature. To travel through Serbia is to move with the natural environment that has been presented to you, to be dynamic to explore its multiple layers and exceptional landscape.
Because when you take away mind-blowing society and government problems, the magnificence of the landscape and nature in Serbia is the only thing here that has never changed and neither will it be.
Gradac River Trek, Valjevo: The Gradac River runs through what I said was one of the ideal and untouched landscapes in Serbia. Steep slopes, tall rock developments and cliff walls surround a shallow river that curves through the forested lands and meadows of this safe region in shades of white and silver. Its streams of water were our path markers as we walked through the cities of Valjevo that were covered in this rugged landscape, a 50 km long landscape said to represent a natural periphery of northwestern Serbia to the south. Wild Serbia, an experience travel organization created by the local people of this very area, takes you to the heart of the area: deep in the Canyon, through its forest and knee-deep in the icy icy waters flanked by trees. twisted. and mud tracks!
Winding The Uvac Gorge: We landed on a street that curved around the edges of the tall cliffs, and the main sighting was a swing that only asked us to be speechless and take in the view. It was the flight of flexibility after entering the Uvac Gorge in southwestern Serbia, and considering that a single 10,000 foot view can capture the eminent curves of this river, even this scene was enough to capture the feeling of the numerous wild and free. landscapes in this nation.
Moving slowly up an artificial earth slope, we came directly to the riverbank where we could rent a boat and a driver. Pontoon rides are a must here, where you feel like you’ve been eaten up by all the cliches of a wonderful natural setting, gliding down the gorge of the Uvac River and feeling like you’ve never seen anything like its color. of blues and greens reflected never before. You really haven’t!
Drifting on the Danube: Obviously the largest river running through Serbia is the Danube, a relentless expanse that cuts through 10 nations, from Germany and Austria in the west to the Balkan plain (and eventually Ukraine) . An expanse of the second largest river in Europe cannot be conquered, and its wide banks and endless appearance are tempting to explore.
From the sandy shores bordering the second largest city in Serbia, Novi Sad, we gently descend towards a small sandy hill, compared to a mysterious island, before jumping in kayaks and paddling to the quieter corners. Dunavski Rafting are your hosts, they welcome you aboard their boat shaped like a wooden house and provide you with all the equipment you have to float, all with a local guide who knows these waters and their stories, isn’t that great?
Riding the Sargan Eight Railway: Riding the narrow Sargan Eight railway in southwestern Serbia through the bumpy valleys is a changing cultural experience here, regardless of whether it only takes a short half-hour journey. The fantasy of a train nerd enthusiast, the emerald green shell of steam preparation is set within a setting that resembles stepping back in time. Perhaps until the late 1900s, the point at which it initially ran its slippery, smoky course through restricted calibers from Sarajevo to Belgrade, a connection that was closed in 1974.
Now you can jump on board in the city of Mokra Gora and see the barcode label of tree trunks in trembling green as you ride through the Sargan Pass that was redone in the mid-2000s.
A place where there is a diverse landscape, it is the natural treasures of Serbia that have not been touched by the containment that gives it another new lease of life, and furthermore we hope that the local people will show a wonderful side of the nation that from time to time when, if we do. , hear about.
