In a German newspaper we found a travel report about a Danube bike route in Serbia and were immediately enthusiastic to try it. We were lucky: our Serbian colleague put us in contact with a “bike-specialist” from Belgrade – Ivan. In Belgrade arrived, we met him and could gratefully accept his support and hospitality. Ivan (an active bicyclist himself) helped us to rent bikes, showed us the favourable route and gave us many important tips for the trip through Serbia. While the tour we stayed always in contact with him and got his offers for accommodation and catering. Returning after 12 days in Belgrade we met him again and let us show the old town of Belgrade.The trip was quite hard due to the almost continually raining (8 of 12 days!), but nonetheless very interesting and absolutely recommendable! Beside the beautiful landscape along the Danube (national park Djerdap) and the South-Eastern Serbia (mountains around Nis) it was the hospitality, cordiality and helpfulness of the Serbian people, that was the most impressive. We had a lot of interesting and friendly meetings and experiences  in Serbia, and one of them we will remember particularly: it was our first stop on the Danube route,  a guest house called “Dunavski Plicak” close to Kovin. Two young people offer their guests a formidable self made catering, comfortable accommodation and very open, friendly atmosphere. After a only short stay there we had the feeling to get news friends. This accommodation on the Danube route is absolutely recommendable for every biker!

Our conclusion after the Serbian trip: we will come again!
