DETAILS: We welcome you to Debeli Lug, a place surrounded by a unique natural environment that exudes a preserved tradition. Debeli Lug has located about 14 km from Majdanpek, a gold mining town in eastern Serbia. We enter the rainforest of Feljesana, the oldest reserve in Serbia, which represents a preserved autochthonous community of Moesian beech (lat. Fagus moesiaca) with rainforest characteristics. This reserve's trees are over 300 years old and over 40 meters high. The Feljesana reserve is the natural habitat of owls, woodpeckers, flycatchers, and other birds that inhabit ancient forests. We continue hiking along the stream Felješana to Danilo Spring with cascading waterfalls, then to the overgrowth of Gaura Ursuli or the Bear Cave. From the Gaura Ursuli, we continue the ascent to the Breza ridge and then to the Breza peak, where we get a beautiful view of the valley: Valja Fundatu, Starica, Great Rubble, and Stol. We continue the Adventure by descending the Black River canyon and visiting the Kršior cave that few people know. Crossing the Black River several times, we reach a beautiful meadow where you can relax and enjoy the extraordinary surroundings. The previous storms destroyed all the logs, so we will build new crossings across the river by placing stones and trunks in the watercourse. The river is not comprehensive and deep (about 3 meters and a depth of about 20 cm or significantly narrower). From here, we take the path back slowly to our transport. Taste Local food by visiting local restaurants with authentic gourmet food - invigorating soups, fried pies - plashinte, porridge, and meat. Come to us in a good mood. We will do our best to experience an unforgettable adventure.
