The lake encircled by lavish nature awaits to cool you down in September when temperatures in Serbia tend to stay high but the crowds diminish. One wakes up to bird singing, and a view of mountain peaks that make the water seem green, thinking about what to do that day.

If you are an active holiday fan, Perućac Lake is a great choice. Today, you might choose to go paddling. You just need to decide whether to take a canoe or a board and set sail along the lake which in part belongs to the third deepest river canyon in the world.

Swimming is always an option and Perućac Lake (or the canyon with its 1,000-meter depth) will properly cool you down. Another way to immerse in an active holiday is to try canyoning with narrow passages between cliffs offering additional fresh air and the scent of a surrounding forest.

If swimming or paddling are not your cup of tea, renting a bike or hiking is always possible. The view of the breathtaking Tara mountain landscapes will be rewarding stretching from popular observation decks. Just imagine kilometers of hiking through the shade of the thick forest with only a sun ray or two peaking through that will help you forget about the city crowds and noise for a while.
