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 7:30 a.m. We travel along the single carriageway through the Sićevo Gorge towards Pirot, and then continue deeper into the heart of the Balkan Mountains. Passing through the picturesque villages of the region, we reach Topli Do, an authentic Balkan mountain village. From there, we begin our hiking tour to the waterfalls of this part of the Balkans. Along the way, we will visit the Lower Pilj Waterfall and Bukovački Do Waterfall, with a lunch break surrounded by nature. After the break, we return to Topli Do following the same trail. The hiking route is approximately 8 kilometers long and requires an easy fitness level. On the way back, we will visit the Monastery of St. George near the village of Temska, a 14th-century monastery set in the picturesque valley of the Temštica River. After visiting the monastery, we continue back to Niš, where we arrive in the evening. End of program.
