Many scientists have said that the Balkans is one of the most beautiful areas in the world. Serbia is certainly no exception to that. Although not too big, considering the territory it occupies, Serbia is very rich in natural beauty. It has several national parks, natural monuments, reserves and other attractions. There are five national parks of exquisite beauty and rich flora and fauna, which together make up about 6% of the country's territory. In addition to parks, there are natural reserves particularly relevant to the country, since they are mainly established to preserve the unique ecosystems and the flora and fauna that is in them.

Serbia also has several monuments of nature, of which the most important one is certainly Đavolja varoš (Devil's Town), a unique geological phenomena in the world. It was nominated for one of the wonders of the world. The entire territory of Serbia is intersected by beautiful rivers. These rivers carved the breathtaking canyons and gorges, and some of them made valleys such as Pčinja, where you can see the most diverse geological landforms in one place. For passionate fishermen, lakes with clear emerald water provide excellent opportunities for practicing their hobby. There are numerous caves, which are several million years old. They are carefully maintained in order to facilitate access to tourists interested in seeing this type of natural attractions.

This country abounds in forests hidden from inquisitive eyes, unspoiled waterfalls, springs and cascades, like the cascades of the river Sopotnica, that make a picturesque scene near Prijepolje. In addition to these, there are several areas of Ramsar, named after the Declaration on the Protection of Wetlands. They are rapidly becoming a tourist attraction for both those who love plants and animals living there, and those who simply love its natural beauty.

Each of these natural attractions can be easily accessed, and in some places activities aimed at improving infrastructure are undertaken so that we will have good access to all tourist locations.

When it comes to accommodations, there is a variety of lodgings and they are usually found within easy reach of these sites. Suitable for tourists who are only passing through this area, as well as those who arrive in order to specifically see certain parts of our country, rooms and apartments in the private offer will fulfill everyone’s expectations.
