Uvac Canyon
Have you ever traveled to a spot that was so beautiful and pristine that you couldn't find the words or emotions to describe it? One example is Uvac Canyon. A protected reserve area in Serbia with numerous magnificent lakes and caves, century-old woods, and unusual flora and fauna includes 219 plant species, 24 fish species, and 130 bird species, including the endangered griffon vulture.
The main things to do here are climb the hill to see Uvac Canyon and take a boat ride in Uvac Canyon.
The Uvac river flows magnificently through the 75-square-kilometer Uvac natural reserve in southern Serbia. The beautifully green river flows over sheer limestone cliffs in a zigzag pattern — a natural wonder best appreciated from a high vantage point. It took two hours to get there from Tara National Park, then a speed boat for nearly an hour, and finally a 45-minute stroll before enjoying the magnificent views of the Uvac Canyon.
- Location: Uvac Cayon, Southwestern Serbia
- Tips:
- There are only 2 ways to get to the viewing platform: a 5-hour boat cruise following by a steep 1-hour hike to the top or driving
- Carry a jacket and do not forget to wear comfortable, hiking shoes and carry lots of water because you won’t find anything to buy food or drinks on the way
- Beware of snakes!
