Well this was definitely BIG surprise.It wasn't prepared to visit this shortest river in the Europe because I never heard of this river.It`s accidentally happened and I am so glad it did happens.Well the Vrelo river or RekaGodina is somethings so unique.In half and hour you can see the river from start to the end , the length of the river is 365mts and that is way it`s had second name One Year River. But its magnificent.I went to see the place where river start and I was blessed with the rich river flow which create beautiful waterfalls.I was able to take great pictures.And its slowly flowing through little village to end up going into big river Drina. Unfortunately there isn't any way to see this waterfall when the rivers join except from river Drina. On the end there are nice restaurants seat nicely with the sound of gurgling stream .I cannot express my happiness with this place.

The lake is located at about 800 meters above sea level. It is widest at the dam and from there it spreads in three directions. It is connected by pipes to Lake Perucac and functions as a reserve of water for the Perucac hydroelectric power plant. When is to much water in Lake Perućac, it is pumped to Lake Zaovine, and when there is not enough water for turbines, it returns. Therefore, the height of the water can vary up to 40 meters, and when is filled with very cold water from Lake Perućac the temperature of the lake drops dramatically. Therefore, it is an ideal place for refreshment in times of high summer temperatures. There are two other small lakes suitable for swimming in the area, Spajici and Lipovica. On the high rock near Lake Spajici are the ruins of a medieval fortress, and a little further on begins the beautiful canyon of Beli Rzav. At the dam of the lake is a place where a Serbian scientist, Josif Pancic, discovered an endemic tree species named after him as Pancic omorica. There are three beautiful waterfalls on the Karaklijski Rzav River that flows into the lake. There are several viewpoints in the surroundings, the most beautiful of them is the Janjac, from which one you can see the lake on one side and the town of Visegrad on the other. Zaovine Lake is a great starting point for visiting all these attractions. I hope these comment will help you. If you need any help regarding this or any other attractions in Serbia (location information, transportation, guidance, organizing private tours, etc.) feel free to contact me because I do tours all over Serbia. Enjoy Serbia!
3. Perucac Lake

The lake was created on the Drina River by the construction of a dam for the Perucac hydroelectric power plant. It goes from Visegrad to Perucac which is more than 50 kilometers. The largest part is in the canyon which is in some places deeper than 1,000 meters and is one of the deepest in the world. Most people only know the start and end part of the lake. Those who were on a cruise ship (cost about 20 euros per person) also saw the middle section, but only from the surface of the lake. Unfortunately, the viewpoints from which you can see the canyon from above are very difficult to access and not easy to find, but they are worth the effort because there give you breathtaking views. After all, look at the photos and judge for yourself. I hope these comment will help you.
