Protected beauty

The untouched nature of eastern Serbia has received the status it has deserved a long time ago. Stara planina (Old mountain) and the Kucaj-Beljanica mountain range were declared national parks. This means that in the future they will be under the highest level of state protection.

Nature lovers, adventurers, mountaineers, skiers know why they keep returning to Stara planina mountain. Those who have not discovered it, will now have the opportunity to visit the newest national park with an area of 116,000 hectares. This area is one of the most valuable and most visited in Serbia, and unbelievable landscapes and rich flora and fauna will be preserved for future generations.

The Kucaj-Beljanica National Park, the largest uninhabited area in Serbia, will also be strictly guarded. The Serbian Carpathians cover 45,000 hectares, and old, relict plant species live in their gorges, canyons and rocks. In the preserved forests there are several rainforest reserves, three strict nature reserves, about 150 speleological objects, 12 natural monuments.

After four decades, Serbia has declared new national parks. Until now, the following areas have had that status: Fruška Gora, Đerdap Gorge, Tara, Kopaonik and Šar mountains, where the greatest treasures of Serbia are kept. They wait for tourists to discover them all year round!
