• About 1.5 hours by car from Belgrade (30 minutes from Novi Sad), so plan it as a full day out
• Trails for every level, from easy walks to hard climbs, all clearly marked
• World War II monument at Iriški venac remembers the people these forests sheltered during the war

Fruška Gora is a low, wooded mountain ridge above the Danube, and Serbia's oldest national park. Clearly marked trails run from easy walks to hard climbs, with plenty of picnic areas and restaurants for a break.

Fossil seashells and corals dug up here date from when the ridge was an island in the Pannonian Sea, and 16 Orthodox monasteries are still active in the woods.
