Itinerary description
For the most part, the route follows bike paths. It starts at the Marconi rent-a-bike on the Danube quay and follows the most popular bike path to Ada Ciganlija (river island and recreation park on the Sava).
Ada is a popular recreation and leisure destination, with sports facilities for almost any kind of sport. It also has a lake and a pebble beach. There is a bike path around the entire lake (ca. 7km). There are showers next to the beach in case you are planning to take a dip in the lake. Also, you can find water fountains and toilets throughout Ada.
From Ada Ciganlija, the route continues by boat that takes you to the New Belgrade side of the Sava. From there it takes a bike path (sometimes road) back to Danube quay.
Daily rate for renting men's bikes is 500 dinars. Every 10th bike is free. The same rent-a-bike is open at Ada Ciganlija, so that can also be a starting point for those who are renting bikes.

I had very small amount of time to see something in Belgrade and to do some business in the city and this one track was perfect for me, cause I also wery like bicycle. I rented good quality bike in bike point, near to starting point. Also it was sutable because i've been living near by to starting point.
Elevator at the bridge and the boat through the river were working.
But I extended track before finish: I went to "Millennium Tower, Zemun" - there is a fantastic view
