UNESCO Reserves

2 MIN

In Serbia the Bačko Podunavlje and Golija Mountain both hold the prestigious title of designated UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. These unique natural sites, filled with lush flora and fauna, are well-preserved to ensure they can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Bačko Podunavlje

You will reach Bačko Podunavlje if you enter Serbia from the North, where the Danube marks the natural border between Serbia and the neighboring countries of Croatia and Hungary.  “The Serbian Amazon”, as this area is sometimes called, was created in ancient times by the “mischievous” Danube, which had no natural obstacles to prevent it from occasionally overflowing its banks and flooding meadows and forests in its way.

Golija

In contrast to the northern plains, Southwestern Serbia is a tamer region, with Golija mountain, rich in diverse plant and animal life, standing as its landmark. As you walk across the mountain, you will be able to touch a remarkable natural monument – the Mountain Maple, which has survived the last Ice Age. These two widely different areas provide unique opportunities for enjoying pristine nature.
