Golubac fortress

 

Golubac Fortress was a medieval fortified town on the south side of the Danube River, 4 km downstream from the modern-day town of Golubac, Serbia. The fortress, which was most likely built during the 14th century, was split into three compounds which were built in stages. It has ten towers, most of which are  square shaped, and several of which received multifaceted reinforcements with the advent of firearms.

Djerdap gorge

Spreading at over 63,000 acres of plant and animal abundance of priceless value and beauty, Đerdap National Park is also known as the Iron Gates of the Danube. Gorges, canyons, river valleys and over thousand caves of extraordinary beauty are hidden on the right bank of the river, from the Golubac fortress to the ancient fort of Diana.

The deepest, largest and most attractive gorge in Europe consists of four gorges of imposing beauty: Golubac, Gospođina Vira, Kazan and Sipska. However, the most interesting and geomorphological specific landscapes are the areas of Štrpce, as well as the areas of Great and Small Kazan, where the Danube demonstrates its narrowest (140m) and deepest (90m) points.

Optional activity: Boat vruise in the most attractive part of Iron gate gorge, duration 1,5h

Lepnski vir

Lepenski Vir represents the remains of the oldest settlement in Europe. The first organized human settlement in the open was located in Djerdap, and it was founded eight thousand years ago. The peaceful "Lepenski" Alas carefully chose this location, and formed a culture there that lasted for two thousand years in a row, in the period 6500-4500. p. n. e. The Lepenski Vir site was discovered during extensive excavations in Djerdap due to the construction of the Djerdap I hydroelectric power plant. In 2011, a new visitor center was opened, which preserves the remains of a culture under its dome, which astonished the whole world with its discovery...

​Kapetan Misa hill - village household (optional visit)

Just a few kilometers from Donji Milanovac in eastern Serbia, there is a phenomenally arranged eco-ethnic village of Kapetan Mišin breg. The complex is located at 173 m above sea level, offering an unforgettable view of the Danube and Đerdap National Park. Within the Captain Mišin breg complex, it is possible to visit the gallery called "Man, wood, water", which contains a collection of sculptures made of wood and stone. Also, just after entering through the main gate, on the right you will come to the wine museum, which you can also visit.
And of course, what many people come here for is the gastronomic offer. In the eco-ethno park, you can enjoy the specialties of Wallachian cuisine, and the hosts will be happy to introduce you to the way of preparing old dishes, the secrets of Wallachian bread and the former Đerdap caviar. Many say that they ate fried nettles here for the first time, and every time they try them, they are nowhere near as good as in this complex.
