Etapa 2 de la Ruta que discurre por el bajo Danubio de Belgrado a Constanta, durante 1017 km hasta el Mar Negro en 10 etapas. Va de Smederevo a Veliko Gradiste, pasando principalmente por el impresionante camino que pasa por el dique de contención construido por las avenidas del río.

STAGE DESCRIPTION
This is the second stage, going from Smederevo to Veliko Gradiste. Leaving Smederevo, we go back to the Dunav and cross the river. Then right, we reach Kovin, very pleasant city. Then we return to the river, following up de dam, with more marshes and birds. You can see some beaches, and grups of houses in the forest next to the river. Very pleasant. In Duvovac we leave the river to pass the Delibato sands. It's a huge forest over the sands of the river. When we reach the DTD Kanal, we turn right to follow the dam. It's all grass, but interesting to reach Stara Palanka where there is a little ferry station to cross the river. In the restaurant next to the ferry, you can tast a delicious soup. Once in the ferry, you cross to Ram, with excellent views of the river and the fortress of Ram. In land, you take a steep climb to take a road to Zatonje. And then you cross silver lake (an old arm of the river converted with dams in a lake) and follow beside the river to reach Veliko Gradiste, the end of the stage.

POINTS OF INTEREST
   - City of Kovin.
   - Raj Beach.
   - Delibato Sands (with the forest).
   - Stara Palanka with the restaurant and his fish soup.
   - Ram and its fortress.
   - Silver lake.

DESTINATION POINT
Veliko Gradiste is a touristic ressort in Silver lake. Many local tourists and hotels, restaurants and other touristic ressorts. Excellent down views with the sun over the river. There is an interesting path to walk along the river, with many bars and other souvenirs shops, and amenities for the children. You can also take an excellent bath.

ALTERNATIVE ROUTES
From Kovin to Duvovac you can take the main road to avoid the dam, which is slow to ride. Then, if you have many time and strength in DTD Kanal, you can take a deviation Bela Krava and return to Stara Palanka. Of cours there is the possibility to not cross the Duvav and follow all the Iron Gates through the north part of Dunav (Romanian side). But this is another trip.
