Enjoy lush landscapes, rolling pastures, meadows, and hills, where wild horses dance in the golden light of sunset. Discover the beauty of mountain rivers and crystal-clear streams that suddenly transform into untamed waterfalls, some soaring over 60 meters high. Climb a peak, descend into a cave—simply for the thrill of it. The bold can rappel down a cliff, and the bravest can take on a wild river canyon. Encounter raw, pristine, and exceptional nature. Yes, meet Balkan—the mountain that gave its name to the Balkan Peninsula. Welcome to the Balkan Mountains, a unique National Park!

Tour plan:

Departure from Niš in front of the hotel at 07:00 a.m. We travel along a single carriageway road through the stunning Sićevo Gorge to Pirot, continuing deep into the heart of the Balkan Mountains. Passing through picturesque mountain villages, we arrive in the authentic village of Dojkinci. From there, a terrain vehicle takes us to Arbinje, our starting point. We set off on a circular hiking tour to Tri Čuke, one of the most beautiful peaks of the Balkan Mountains. Passing by the Arbinje waterfall, we reach Tri Kladenca, the source of the Dojkinačka River. The climb up the waterfall to the river’s source is one of the most thrilling parts of this adventure. Continuing along the mountain ridge, which offers stunning views of neighboring Bulgaria, we ascend to the peak of Tri Čuke. From there, we descend via a forest trail back to Arbinje. A terrain vehicle takes us back to Dojkinci village. The total hiking distance is 14.5 km and requires a moderate level of physical fitness along with excellent agility. Return to Niš in the evening.
