Национални парк Тара
8 Recommendations: 8 Favorable,
National Park Tara, amazing nature... Known for its beautiful peaks, thick forests, and deep caves, the park's highlight is the massive Drina River Gorge, where rafting and boat trips are organized. The park is home to the rare Pancic Spruce (Picea omorica), which dates to the pre-historic Tertiary era. Also in its forests are many varieties of wild animals. Waterfalls within the national park are also part of its impressive beauty along the course of mountain rivers and streams. My personal and honest recommendation is if you ever come to Serbia, dont forget to visit this wonderful piece of nature.
