A region made for exploring.
The lake is the centre of your stay, but the valley around it has held stories and traditions for more than eight hundred years. Within a ten to twenty minute drive of your bed, medieval fortresses, hidden monasteries, secret underground cities and authentic taverns line the banks of the Drina, waiting for you.
Medieval fortress Đurđev grad
An imposing 13th-century stronghold high above the Drina. Three connected tiers, with sweeping views of the town, the river and the whole lake valley.
King Aleksandar's iron bridge
The old iron bridge over the Drina, finished in 1929 — a favourite town view, especially at dusk when the lights spill across the river.
Cathedral of the Holy Mother of God
Zvornik's main Orthodox church, a calm spot in the heart of town, a short walk from the quay and the bridge.
Town of Zvornik
The spirit of the old čaršija on the banks of the Drina. Saturday morning market, and a legendary fish soup on the city quay.
Underground city of the Karađorđevićs
A hidden labyrinth carved into the rock — over 70 rooms and a kilometre and a half of corridors, built in secrecy in the 1930s as a royal shelter.
Monastery Lovnica
A convent in deep stillness at the source of a small river — said to be a foundation of King Dragutin Nemanjić, with extraordinary Ottoman-era frescoes.
Royal spa Banja Koviljača
Just across the river — Belle Époque architecture, one of the most beautiful parks in the region, and the famous 1908 sulphur baths.
Gastro festival “Somovijada”
A late-summer weekend along the lake — catfish competitions, fish soup from the cauldron, and live music at the water's edge.
Zvornik off-road rally
A summer adventure on wheels — off-roaders gathering for a run through the hills above the lake, with a lively atmosphere and music.
