Are you ready for short adventure trip in Belgrade city core?
This kayak tour is taking place at the confluence of the biggest former Yugoslav River – Sava and mighty Danube River.
On the left side are Horse island and War island and on the right, we are just under ancient Belgrade – Kalemegdan fortress.
Our tour first flows upstream Danube, near Horse island and many bird species which live on this island. When reaching top of the island, we continue paddling downstream near War island and more over entering Sava River. After a while, on our left side, in the middle of the War island we can see Galijas canal. Galijas is well known to fisherman and biology scientists in Belgrade. When water levels increase during winter and spring fish enters and settle here, making new ones, fresh and ready for exciting life :D.
Just opposite to Galijas, on the right side we can see Belgrade from water, as our ancestors seen it centuries ago.
After short sightseeing and relax, we start paddling back to the start point.
