Departure from Belgrade at 8:00 in front of your accommodation or from a pre-arranged location and we star our Wooden City & Sargan Eight Train tour. We will drive on the highway to Valjevo, where we’ll continue on a local road that passes through the beautiful Valjevo mountains.
At the “Gateway to Podrinje,” we’ll take a short break to snap some photos of the breathtaking scenery.
Next, we’ll arrive at the powerful green river Drina, after which the region is named. The House on the Drina is a building that was built over half a century ago and has withstood high water levels since its reconstruction in 2011. It’s a place for relaxation and enjoyment, especially for young adults looking for their own space.
Afterwards, we’ll continue our journey over the Tara mountain, where we can expect wonderful views of endless forests. After an hour’s drive, we’ll arrive at Mokra Gora, where we’ll ride the famous Sargan train. During the ride, passengers will have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful views and natural surroundings.
The train passes through 22 tunnels, the longest of which is dedicated to King Alexander I. It’s called the Šargan Eight because it moves along a track in the shape of the number 8. Finally, we’ll visit the Mećavnik-Drvengrad Ethno Complex, which is a modern ethno-touristic complex originally built for the film “Life is a Miracle.”
You’ll have the chance to walk through the complex and see the church dedicated to St. Sava, the Mećavnik hotel, a library, a cinema, a pool, and a national cuisine restaurant. Streets and squares bear the names of famous writers, poets, directors, and athletes.
You can enjoy traditional Serbian cuisine, such as Ribić in Kajmak or Serbian Mućkalica, at one of the excellent restaurants. After a leisurely stroll through the complex and a lunch break, we’ll head back to Belgrade via the main highway.
Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the stunning region of Podrinje and experience the famous Ćira train and Mećavnik-Drvengrad Ethno Complex. Book your trip now!
