Key facts about Šljivovica
The landscape includes the protected Račanska Šljivovica site, covering an area of 17.81 hectares. An old forester's lodge in Račanska Šljivovica was converted into a learning and information centre for Tara National Park. Račanska Šljivovica is located on the road between Kaluđerske Bare and Mitrovac. The area around Šljivovica also contains reserves of Serbian spruce, clearings with medicinal herbs, as well as springs and streams.
What nature and excursion destinations are there in the surrounding area?
The surrounding area is suitable for planning a trip in which not just a single destination but various landscape sites play a role. Hajdučka česma is a marked excursion site near Šljivovica and is located about 2 km away. Sokolarica is a rock formation with a viewpoint over the Rača Canyon; it is located about 2 to 3 km away in the direction of Mitrovac. The different distance Angaben help you classify these two destinations separately rather than treating them as one shared excursion site.
An equestrian activity is also part of the documented surroundings: the riding stable near the monastery farms has a riding school. This makes it possible to expand the choice of activities beyond hiking and cycling, without requiring a particular accommodation or its amenities.
What cycling and winter sports facilities are available?

When choosing accommodation, you can therefore distinguish between a named circular route and paths through the forest.
