Itinerary description
This route leads via a mountain road to a mountain formed by volcanic activity called Grot. In the vicinity is another such mountain Oblik. Nearby, at the foot of Oblik is a church Sv. Pantelejmon.
The route leads close to Przar, which is a nice vantage point with a restaurant that is recommended either on the way there, or on the way back.
Along the route is Markovo Kale, the ruins of a medieval fortress on top of a precarious cliff. It too has a vantage point with a nice view and you should stop and check it out.
Jezero, despite its name (lake in Serbian), has no body of water. It is a formerly very popular picnic destination.
Once at the foot of Grot, the road ends. Climb to the summit seems possible on foot. Visiting Oblik and the church is also possible, but no roads are visible on the map.
